The next day!

Zhao Xu held a grand funeral for the brothers who died in the battle in Wuzu Village and some of the disciples who died in Xuannv Palace.

Merit cards were carved for each person who died, and a mage was invited to transcend their souls.

In addition, a considerable pension is given to each deceased family member.

This is Zhao Xu's heartfelt gratitude to every person who died and the sacrifice he made to protect the village of the five ethnic groups.

At the same time, corresponding bonuses were also given to the injured and those who survived.

As a result, instead of complaining, the people of the Five Ethnic Villages all swore allegiance to Zhao Xu.

As the saying goes, good birds roost on trees; wise ministers take charge.

The Five Nationalities Village is like their home, and everyone feels honored to protect the Five Nationalities Village.

After this battle, many brothers in the Five Ethnic Villages were killed or injured.

Zhao Xu added some manpower from Jiutang and Beizhu Gang respectively.

This time, after repelling the coalition forces of the Seven Temples, as well as the coalition forces of Xichang and Orion Gate, Feidan of the Five Ethnic Villages did not feel depressed due to the loss of manpower, but instead made everyone become more motivated.

On the contrary, the Miyun Mountain main altar of Dongchang was breached, and the Songye Town altar also lost a lot of manpower. In addition, Yang Lan was kidnapped by Jiang Yuanqing of the Tianwang Group, causing Dongchang to suffer an unprecedented blow.

Life in Xichang was also difficult. Not only did Liu Hongxi lose his eldest daughter Liu Wenyin, but two top masters were killed on the spot, and as many as one-third of his men were damaged.

In comparison, Orion Gate's losses were relatively small. However, because Orion Gate is the world's largest killer organization, many of its members are wanted by the police. Since being encircled and suppressed by the police in Lincheng, on the way home,

They were constantly being arrested by police officers, and there were also some casualties.

Three days later, Zhao Xu held a grand celebration banquet in the Five Nationalities Village to reward all the people in the Five Nationalities Village and the disciples of Xuannv Palace.

The entire celebration banquet lasted from afternoon to evening.

Zhao Xu and his wife Li Qingqing toasted to the main combatants one by one.

When it was Xu Lingzhu's turn, Xu Lingzhu stood up and said to Zhao Xu: "I don't drink!"

Zhao Xu was slightly shocked when he saw Xu Lingzhu rejecting him.

Li Qingqing on the side smiled and said: "Miss Xu, since you don't drink alcohol, just drink water instead of wine. You have done a lot for the Five Ethnic Villages, so we must express our gratitude to you."

"Okay! Then I'll replace the wine with water."

Xu Lingzhu poured a glass of water into the cup, raised the cup and said: "Seeing that the people of the Five Nationalities Village are united, I am very happy for you. There is no such thing as a banquet in the world, and I will leave early tomorrow morning. I wish you both a hundred years.

Great fit!”

"Thank you!" Li Qingqing replied politely.

Zhao Xu asked Xu Lingzhu: "Miss Xu, where are you going?"

Xu Lingzhu smiled sweetly and said, "I want to travel around. The world is as big as any place I can go."

"Then I wish you a safe journey!"

"Thanks!"

The three of them clinked their glasses together and drank the wine in their glasses.

Xu Lingzhu seemed out of place at the banquet. It wasn't that she thought she was aloof, but that she liked silence by nature.

After she drank wine with Zhao Xu and Li Qingqing and ate a little, she left the banquet with Xu Sheng and Xu Zhi.

Zhao Xuyou noticed Xu Lingzhu leaving.

However, it is not convenient for him, a grown man, to go to Xu Lingzhu to talk alone. Otherwise, he will easily be misunderstood by his wife Li Qingqing.

Li Qingqing said to Zhao Xu: "Zhao Xu, should we show Miss Xu some money?"

"Yeah! It should be!" Zhao Xu nodded.

"She is leaving tomorrow, let me give her a check for 20 million!" Li Qingqing said.

"That's fine!" Zhao Xu agreed.

If Xu Lingzhu could accept the gift of money, Zhao Xu would feel more at ease. Otherwise, he always felt that he owed Xu Lingzhu a huge favor.

Soon, Li Qingqing left the banquet.

She went home, took out her checkbook, and filled out a check for 20 million.

Afterwards, he went to Qinjia Village alone.

After knocking on Xu Lingzhu's door, Xu Lingzhu was surprised to see that the person coming was Li Qingqing.

Asked Li Qingqing: "Sister Qingqing, why are you here?"

Li Qingqing smiled slightly and said, "I thought you were leaving tomorrow, so I came to talk to you."

"Please come in!" Xu Lingzhu let Li Qingqing into the room.

After Li Qingqing entered Xu Lingzhu's room, she took out the 20 million check she had just filled out, handed it to Xu Lingzhu and said, "Miss Xu, if you take two people to travel, you will inevitably have certain expenses on the road. This is 20 million

The check can be accepted by all major banks across the country. Please be sure to accept it!"

"this......"

Xu Lingzhu originally wanted to refuse, but knew that Zhao Xu and Li Qingqing did not want to owe him any favors.

Besides, she didn't want to have too much entanglement with Zhao Xu.

Perhaps accepting the other party's gift is the best solution.

In addition, Xu Lingzhu already knows the importance of "money!" to this world.

The one million Liu Wenyin gave her was spent, but only more than 400,000 were left. Part of it was to help Zhao Xu advance the freight for the supplies. Therefore, Xu Lingzhu hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take the check.

She opened her red lips lightly and said, "Okay! I'll accept the 20 million. Thank you, Sister Qingqing!"

"To say thank you, we can only thank you for it. If you can accept this money, it will make us feel better."

After Li Qingqing finished speaking, she sighed and said: "Miss Xu! Although I don't know you personally, I know that you are a good person. I wonder if we will see each other again after this separation? I only hope that Miss Xu

If you are tired from traveling abroad, you can go back to the Five Nationalities Village to have a look. The door of the Five Nationalities Village will always be open to you."

Xu Lingzhu could feel the sincerity in Li Qingqing's tone.

I feel a little touched!

After all, in this world, except for her master and Xu Sheng and Xu Zhi, she has no relatives.

But in the Five Ethnic Village, it gave her a feeling of home.

Xu Lingzhu has a high level of cultivation and has already learned to be indifferent to emotions and anger.

He replied to Li Qingqing: "Thank you, Sister Qingqing! If there is a chance, I will come as a guest again."

"That's great! I'm looking forward to your coming to the Five Tribes Village again."

Later, Li Qingqing and Xu Lingzhu exchanged phone numbers with each other.

Li Qingqing chatted with Xu Lingzhu for a while and then left Xu Lingzhu's room.

After the banquet, Zhao Xu sat in the living room drinking tea.

But in my mind, I couldn't help but think about Xu Lingzhu's departure.

However, it was already late at night and he could not find a suitable reason to talk to Xu Lingzhu.

Early the next morning, Zhao Xu had just finished practicing his sword skills in the martial arts training ground in the back room when he saw Wu Zheng, the scarred swordsman, running over in a hurry.

Report to Zhao Xu: "Mr. Zhao, this is the letter that Miss Xu asked me to give to you!"

"Where is she?"

"Already gone!" Scar Wu Zheng replied.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he moved his body and quickly passed by Scar Wu Zheng.

When they arrived outside the gate, Xu Lingzhu was nowhere to be seen.
Chapter completed!
