Su Xiaoxiao waved her hand in front of his eyes. “You haven’t answered my question. ”
Su Xuan released his fingers and smiled quietly at Su Xiaoxiao.
When a handsome man smiled like this, her heart would melt.
Su Xiaoxiao tried her best to hold it in and said righteously, “I already said that I won’t fall for this. Don’t dream of getting away with it. You have to explain clearly today. What’s your relationship with the Holy Maiden Temple? What’s your relationship with Elder Lou? Why do you know so many secrets of the Holy Maiden Temple?”
“There you are.”
A disciple of the Holy Maiden Temple walked over.
She was Elder Lou’s trusted aide.
She glanced at the two of them and said, “Elder Lou was worried that you had lost your way and asked me to bring you back.”
It was true that he had been out for too long. Getting lost was a small matter. If he was really discovered, Elder Lou, the “guarantor”, would be implicated.
Su Xiaoxiao finally understood why Elder Lou wanted to beat someone up just now. It wasn’t her imagination. She really wanted to beat up Su Xuan, the Head of the Secret Services.
With outsiders present, she could only give up on chatting.
The two of them followed the disciples back to the elders’ seats.
The disciple selection ceremony was almost over. Ji Roushu and Yue Qinghuan were both chosen as disciples of the Holy Maiden Temple, and 15 others were also chosen.
The Holy Maiden Temple held an internal selection every three years. The disciples who passed the internal selection could be promoted to the head emissary. Above that was the elder.
Even if one could not become the Saintess, being an elder was still very glorious. She could also control a portion of the power of the Holy Maiden Temple and lay the foundation for the family to participate in the Holy Selection in the future.
The only person who failed was Cheng Qingxue.
She had been slapped by the Holy Bird and was seen as someone who had angered the Heavenly God. She was never allowed to step into the Holy Maiden Temple again.
Su Xiaoxiao was in no hurry to leave.
She had been paying attention to the movements of the royal family seat opposite.

Finally, the curtain was lifted and a young man in luxurious clothes walked out.
Behind him were a few effeminate servants.
Among these eunuchs, there was an exceptionally outstanding appearance and bearing. His elegance even surpassed that of the man in luxurious clothes.
Su Xuan said casually, “Third Prince, the queen’s legitimate son. That’s Eunuch
Jin, the most trusted eunuch of the King of the Nanjiang.”
“Eunuch,” Su Xiaoxiao muttered. It was a pity to be a eunuch with such a good appearance.
Su Xiaoxiao continued, ‘Which prince proposed to Princess Hui An?”
Su Xuan said, “It’s this Third Prince.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked strangely, “He looks to be in his twenties. Has he never gotten married?”
Su Xuan replied, “There was a princess consort who died suddenly.”
Sudden death?
So she died suddenly.
To a certain extent, these words made sense.
It was obvious that this Third Prince was not easy to get along with. As expected, Su Xuan’s next words confirmed Su Xiaoxiao’s guess.
“He likes to torture his partner in the bedroom.”
He actually had such a fetish. Fortunately, Princess Hui An had run away from the marriage. Otherwise, who knew what inhumane torture she would suffer after marrying a big pervert.
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at Princess Hui An, who was sitting on the chair and eating rice cake leisurely.
She was like an innocent little white rabbit with the purest beauty in the world.
She should not have become a tool for Emperor Jing Xuan to consolidate his power.
Princess Hui An realized that Su Xiaoxiao was looking at her. She put down the rice cake and asked, “Little sidekick, are we leaving?
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Yes, we’re leaving.”
“Oh, then I won’t continue eating.” Princess Hui An clapped her hands and stood up. She said to Elder Lou, “Your rice cake tastes good. Add less sugar next time.”
Elder Lou’S DOCIY trembled.
Would there would be a next time?
Outside the Holy Maiden Temple.
Cheng Lian and Xie Yunhe sat in their carriage and waited for the results.
The two of them looked calm on the surface, but they were actually suffering in their hearts.
Having been humiliated in public, they had lost all their dignity. The reason why they did not return to the residence immediately was to wait for Cheng
Qingxue to come out in glory as a Saintess to avenge the previous humiliation.
“Why is it taking so long?” Cheng Lian lifted the curtain and looked in.
The coachman went to ask around and returned to report, “I heard that something went wrong. ”
“Who went wrong?” Cheng Lian asked.
The coachman replied, “Miss Yin, she suddenly fainted.”
Cheng Lian said, ‘Yin Xiaodie was first. If she fainted, isn’t it Qingxue’s turn?”
She smiled at Xie Yunhe and said, “Looks like even the Heavenly God is helping us. Qingxue’s position as the Saintess is secured.”
How glorious was it to have two Saintesses?
Presumably, those stick-in-the-muds in the clan could not say anything else.
Cheng Sang only had a family head’s token and had long lost her authority. Could a mere Uncle Quan really turn the tide?
Cheng Lian smiled happily.
A rare smile appeared on Xie Yunhe’s face.
Cheng Lian said, “When Qingxue comes back later, you’re not allowed to neglect her anymore. You have to accompany her more. Otherwise, when she officially moves to the Holy Maiden Temple, you won’t have a chance to be with her even if you want to.”
Xie Yunhe said, “There have been too many things to do recently. I’m almost done. I’ll find time to accompany her more.”
Cheng Lian knew very well he was doing this to regain control of the Cheng family, but she couldnt help her feelings for this man. As long as she could keep him by her side, she would take it, be it with her feelings or her daughters and power.
Su Xuan walked with Princess Hui An and Elder Lou.
Su Xiaoxiao came out on her own first.
Seeing that she had come out empty-handed and did not obtain the token of the Holy Maiden Temple, Cheng Lian knew that she had failed.
Cheng Lian stopped her. “Cheng Su.”

Cheng Lian said warmly, “Didn’t you run for the Saintess?”
Those who failed to be chosen as the Saintess would usually participate in the disciple selection unless there were special circumstances. Moreover, they would usually be chosen. After all, their strength would have been extraordinary to be able to pass the first two rounds.
Cheng Lian’s words seemed to be a question, but they were actually a slap to Su Xiaoxiao’s face, mocking her for not even being able to be selected a disciple.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Yes, I didn’t run.”
Cheng Lian smiled. “Is it that you didn’t run, or you didn’t get selected?” Su Xiaoxiao said, “Is there a difference?
Cheng Lian automatically understood that Su Xiaoxiao was putting on an appearance. “It’s fine if you’re not chosen. The Saintess is qualified to bring two maidservants into the Holy Maiden Temple. The maidservants can automatically be remembered as disciples of the Saintess Temple. Our Qingxue is not the kind of person who can’t tolerate others. Although you’ve offended her repeatedly, Qingxue won’t argue with you on account that you’re a junior. Be good and admit your mistake to Qingxue and let Qingxue give you the status of a disciDle of the Holv Maiden TemDle.”
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly smiled.
She looked back and said, “Cheng Qingxue, you came at the right time. Why don’t you tell your parents if you’ve qualified?”
Cheng Qingxue bit her lip. Her eyes were red and tears were about to fall.
Cheng Lian immediately realized that something was wrong.
Unfortunately, everyone around heard her and looked at her curiously.
Yin Xiaodie carried the Holy Bird out and said with an incomparably poisonous tongue, “Cheng Su didn’t stay in the Holy Maiden Temple because she voluntarily withdrew. She’s unlike some people who was slapped by the Holy Bird and abandoned by the gods, Cheng Qingxue can’t even be a disciple, let alone a Saintess! You’re right. It’s not that she didn’t run, but that she didnt get selected!”
Cheng Lian vomited blood….
After such a big thing happened, the Saintess wanted to return to the Cheng family today.
Just as she arrived at the door, she heard Yin Xiaodie and Cheng Su argue until Cheng Lian vomited blood.
She flicked her finger and shot a silver needle at Su Xiaoxiao.
Her internal strength was extremely high, so no one noticed that she had attacked.
However, just as the silver needle was about to hit Su Xiaoxiao’s back, a small stone suddenly flew over and smashed the silver needle to the ground.
Who was it?
To think that someone could actually stop her silver needles!
The Saintess looked back.
Elder Lou walked over with a young master and servant.
The man was very handsome, but he looked like a weak scholar.
There was even less of a need to mention that little attendant.
Could it be that… Elder Lou had attacked?
Had Elder Lou’s martial arts reached this level in time?
