C216 I Promised You
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "It's just a mountain peak. I've stepped onto it today." Saying this, he looked toward the Heaven Swallowing Boar and said, "Then you can stay here." Saying this, Zhang Fan walked towards the stone wall.
"Lord Pig is just joking. Wait for me!" The Heaven Swallowing Boar quickly said and happily followed. In the end, Zhang Fan threw the Heaven Swallowing Boar into the jade pendant. He had a small magic beast in his arms, so bringing the Heaven Swallowing Boar along would definitely be a burden.
The Heaven Swallowing Boar was naturally very excited and immediately agreed.
Then, he looked up at the huge mountain with a smile on his face and a bright light flashing in his eyes. He dodged with his right foot and a powerful force attacked Zhang Fan.
In less than an hour, Zhang Fan had reached the peak of the mountain. At this moment, he held onto a huge rock and took a few deep breaths. He turned his head to take a look, taking in the view of the sea of books.
Ten minutes later, Zhang Fan was once again rushing forward.
As the night gradually fell, Ouyang Xian`er arrived at the edge of the mountain peak and sat on a rock as usual. The wind blew past her, causing her long black hair to flutter in the wind.
Every time she thought about it, she would remember the time when they were at the Feng Clan's back mountain. She thought about the first time they climbed a mountain, and she thought about the night when they encountered difficulties at the cave.
"Young master …" Ouyang Xian`er murmured, her beautiful eyes filled with an indescribable sense of longing.
After a long while, Ouyang Xian`er's eyes flickered as she muttered to herself, "Young Master, have you come to the inner courtyard?"
After muttering to herself, a misty look appeared in Ouyang Xian`er's eyes once more. "Young Master, Xian`er really misses you. When will you be back?" As she spoke, Ouyang Xian`er's eyes reddened as tears gathered in her eyes.
Now that she thought about it, if it really was possible, she really hoped that Zhang Fan could stay in Floating Cloud Country forever, while she had always been the little girl who could take care of Zhang Fan in front of her.
Tears gradually blurred Ouyang Xian`er's eyes as she bit her lips tightly. As her tears fell, they were immediately dispersed by the violent wind.
From afar, an old man stared at Ouyang Xian`er's back, sighing to himself. He walked up to her and asked, "Xian`er, are you alright?"
"Grandpa Xiao, why are you here?" Seeing the old man, Ouyang Xian`er quickly wiped her tears and stood up.
"It's nothing. I just came to see you." The old man smiled. "Why are you thinking about that boy again?"
"Mm." Ouyang Xian`er lowered her head.
Looking at Ouyang Xian'er's expression, the old man couldn't help but sigh once again. After a long time, he said, "The Azure Cloud Academy's competition over there should have ended by now. If your Young Master worked hard enough, perhaps he would be in the inner courtyard by now … But according to what you said, his strength as a Martial Grand Master …" After some hesitation, the old man continued, "How about I bring you over to take a look another day?"
"Really?" When Ouyang Xian`er heard this, she was overjoyed.
The old man nodded lightly. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have the heart to continue cultivating all day. You should have become a Martial King long ago, but now, you still haven't broken through."
An embarrassed expression appeared on Ouyang Xian'er's face. She lowered her head and said, "Grandpa Xiao, I will definitely not let you down. I will work hard!"
"Xian'Er, you're not cultivating for me, you're cultivating for yourself. Don't you want to protect your young master?" The old man asked.
Upon hearing that, Ouyang Xian'er lightly nodded his head.
"Alright, let's go back early. The wind here is quite cold," the old man said.
"Grandpa Xiao, I know …" Ouyang Xian`er spoke as she watched the old man walk inside. Ouyang Xian`er sat back down, her eyes staring off into the distance once again, her expression misty.
As for the old man who was walking back, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. With a slight raise of his brows, he looked towards the side of the mountain. A black figure jumped onto it.
Surprise appeared in his eyes. He had intended to walk up to the stage, but when he saw the shadow's gaze landing on Ouyang Xian`er, he couldn't help but stop in his tracks.
At this moment, the old man discovered that the figure had been staring at Ouyang Xian`er for a long time. At this moment, the old man could still feel that the energy fluctuations emanating from his body were extremely irregular.
After a long time, that figure finally moved towards Ouyang Xian`er.
This person was none other than Zhang Fan. He didn't expect to see Ouyang Xian`er the moment he arrived. That person was still so familiar to him, but right now, his heart was filled with sadness as he gazed at her back.
Arriving at her side, a familiar fragrance wafted in the air. He stretched out his hand and withdrew it, before squatting down beside Ouyang Xian`er. After some time, he finally opened his mouth and said, "Xian`er …"
Hearing this voice, Ouyang Xian`er's body shook, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face. She gently turned her head, and when she saw a pair of eyes looking at her, her expression became lifeless once more.
Her eyes reddened once more as tears gathered in her eyes and dripped down bit by bit. Her handsome face was instantly wet.
"Less... "Young master!"
Ouyang Xian`er's voice trembled as she asked, "Is Xian`er dreaming?"
Zhang Fan forced a smile as he heard Ouyang Xian`er's words. He lifted his hand to gently blow Ouyang Xian`er's messy and smooth hair to the back, but the wind still blew it into disorder.
The corners of his mouth curled up. After a long while, Zhang Fan couldn't help but smile. "What do you think? I promised you that I would come find you as soon as possible. Now, I'm coming for you."
Ouyang Xian`er bit her lips as her tears flowed even faster. She didn't know why, but her heart was filled with emotions. Such a tall mountain, had Zhang Fan specially climbed up to find her?
"Young Master," Ouyang Xian`er spoke as she threw herself into Zhang Fan's embrace. Feeling the warmth and familiarity of his embrace, she instantly felt her heart soften.
Tears were still streaming down his face, but Zhang Fan's chest was soon soaked.
At this moment, Zhang Fan also gently embraced Ouyang Xian`er. When he saw her again, his emotions exploded forth.
At this moment, the little magical beast jumped down from Zhang Fan's bosom and walked to the side. She looked at the two of them with an indescribable emotion in her eyes.
Seeing the two of them, he understood that this was the person whom Ouyang Xian'er had been thinking about day and night. A gentle look appeared on his face, Zhang Fan being able to come to the inner courtyard proved that Zhang Fan was not ordinary, and the fact that he had come all the way from the mountain peak proved that he had great perseverance.
But this Ouyang Xian`er's family...
With a sigh, the elder turned around to return. However, before he left, the elder seemed to sense something and looked toward the little magical beast with an astonished expression.
The little magical beast naturally felt the old man's gaze and raised her head. Her star-like eyes met his, and a look of vigilance appeared in them.
Needless to say, the Xuan Marten Beast was brought here by Zhang Fan. From the looks of it, this Xuan Marten Beast had at least reached the peak of the ninth grade, and its aura was extremely powerful.
He couldn't help but feel shocked in his heart. After a long while, he gave Zhang Fan a deep look before heading back.
Perhaps it was at this moment that the little magical beast retracted its gaze. This was because he felt a sense of danger from the elder. Needless to say, the elder's strength was extremely terrifying.
However, seeing the old man leave, Qing Ya understood that this old man did not have any ill intentions. Otherwise, he would not have left like this.

Zhang Fan and Ouyang Xian`er hugged each other for a long time before separating. At this moment, Zhang Fan reached out and gently wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes again. He smiled and said, "Little girl, don't cry anymore. If you cry again, it will be a waste. If it is, it won't look good …"
Ouyang Xian`er didn't say anything after hearing that. After a long time, she said, "Young Master, did you climb up yourself?"
"That's right," Zhang Fan said with an indescribable gentleness.
"Are you tired?" Ouyang Xian`er couldn't help but ask, her face filled with unspeakable worry.
"Of course not." Zhang Fan smiled and paused for a moment before continuing, "But even if you're tired, you still have to come up here to see you."
Upon hearing these words, Ouyang Xian`er's heart was once again moved. She was so moved that tears couldn't help but flow down her face once more.
"Why are you crying again?" Zhang Fan said as he extended his hand to wipe away Ouyang Xian`er's tears. Then, half jokingly, he said, "Do you miss your young master?"
When Zhang Fan said this, Ouyang Xian`er's tears flowed even faster. She bit her pink lips and nodded. "Yes, Xian`er is always thinking about Young Master."
"Silly girl." Taking a deep breath, Zhang Fan could not help but say, "I also think about Xian'er every day."
"En!" Ouyang Xian`er's face reddened. Although Zhang Fan's words were simple, they filled her heart with a peculiar joy.
Zhang Fan smiled and helped Ouyang Xian`er wipe her tears once more. He pinched her cheek affectionately and said, "Alright, don't cry anymore. I'm also here now. We'll meet more often in the future."
