While Ning Caichen and Xiaoqian were flirting, Yang Xiao was discussing the cultivation path with Yan Chixia. Yang Xiao had many unique skills while Yan Chixia had profound cultivation and extraordinary sword skills. Both of them had a great harvest after their discussion. Suddenly, Yang Xiao thought of something and said in surprise,"Someone triggered the pure Yang aura I left on Ning Caichen?”
When Yan Chixia heard that, he seemed to have thought of something and quickly shouted,""Not good. In the forest behind Lanruo Temple, there is a big tree. After thousands of years, it has already cultivated into a spirit. Its strength is powerful and extraordinary. It often orders a group of ghosts under its command to harm people everywhere. It is because he kills bad people that I don't meddle in other people's business.”
Frowning slightly, Yang Xiao smiled and said,""Although my friend is a poor scholar, he is upright and has some luck. He is not a short-lived ghost.”
Yan Chixia nodded and said,"That's for the best."”
Yang Xiao muttered to himself and said,"Although that's the case, it's not a long-term thing to let such a ferocious monster occupy this place. Since the two of us are here, why don't we join forces?”
"Good!" Yan Chixia was also a wild and straightforward person. He immediately laughed and said,""Just as Brother Yang said, I also have the same intention.”
The two of them immediately left the temple. At this moment, in the pavilion at the center of the lake, Miss Xiao Qian, who was dressed in a white dress, was lying in Ning Caichen's arms. She said faintly,"Yes, Young Master, I'm so cold.”
A living person's body had innate essence energy flowing through it, so it was naturally much warmer than a ghost's.
It was the first time Ning Caichen had encountered such a situation. He was in a state of confusion and unease with the temptation of beauty in front of him, but he did not dare to be rude at all. He quickly closed his eyes and said,"Miss, your body is so cold. You must have caught a cold. Why don't I help you find a doctor?”
He was still puzzled. Could this be the custom of some place? Why did men and women have to be so close to each other when talking?
Xiao Qian moaned and hid her head behind Ning Caichen's ear. She blew a breath of fresh air and said,""I just want you to give me a little warmth. That's enough.”
Ning Caichen sniffled and suddenly opened his eyes. He pushed the owner of the voice away and sneezed loudly. The lake water was too cold just now, and he had been running all night. It would be strange if he didn't catch a cold in the night wind. However, Ning Caichen quickly reacted. Just now, he was only worried that he would sneeze on Xiao Qian's face. However, when he turned his body, Xiao Qian fell onto the ground of the pavilion. This kind of rude thing should not be done by a well-read person like him. Immediately, he turned around and helped Xiao Qian up. He explained to her in a hurry,"Miss, are you okay? I'm sorry. I didn't want to spray all over your face!”
Xiao Qian rubbed her arms and softly said,""It hurts."
As she spoke, she slowly raised her head and smiled sweetly at Ning Caichen. What appeared in front of Ning Caichen was a beautiful face. Suddenly, he was stunned again and explained stupidly,"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have pushed you so hard.”
However, he was an upright person after all. At the critical moment, he still retained a trace of rationality. Although he looked infatuated, he still straightened Xiao Qian's body and gently pushed her out of his arms to help her sit properly.
Xiaoqian obviously didn't want to do that. She stuck her body to Ning Caichen's again and said softly," Young Master, I'm so cold!"
She held Ning Caichen's cheeks with both hands. Ning Caichen's face was red and he almost cried as he replied,""I'm even colder than you! Besides, I'm drenched from head to toe by the lake water. Wouldn't it be colder if you leaned on me?”As he spoke, he pushed Xiao Qian away. This time, when Xiao Qian pounced on him again, he had already dodged far away and asked with concern,"Miss, are you in pain? Still cold?"
Xiaoqian wrapped her arms around Ning Caichen's neck and said,""Carry me into the pavilion."
Her eyes were crystal clear and bright. Ning Caichen couldn't bear to refuse such a beautiful woman's request. He naturally hugged Xiao Qian's legs and tried to lift her up with both hands. However, he was a weak scholar with limited strength and couldn't move her."Miss Xiaoqian, you're so heavy. I can't carry you. I'd better go find someone to help.”He wanted to say more, but he felt his expression blur and he fell asleep in a daze.
Xiao Qian looked at the adorable Ning Caichen with pity and sighed,""The person who saw you is very kind. It's a pity that you came to the wrong place. Otherwise, you wouldn't have died so unworthy.”As she spoke, she gently lowered her head and was about to absorb Ning Caichen's Yang Qi. She did not want to commit more sins on such a man.
However, at this moment, she suddenly felt two powerful auras coming at her. One of them was Yan Chixia, whom she was familiar with, and the other was unfamiliar, but it was exactly the same as the one she felt from Ning Caichen. She knew that she had met a master, so she quickly cried out and turned to leave.
Ning Caichen woke up with a start. The pavilion in the middle of the lake had long been empty, leaving only a broken zither on the small table.
"Sigh! Miss, your zither!" He shouted loudly and hurriedly picked up his zither to give chase. However, he saw a figure flash in front of him and a figure had already closed in.
"Brother Ning, you're really here!" Yang Xiao chuckled as he looked at Ning Caichen in front of him. He could sense that the pure Yang aura he had left on him had disappeared. How could he not understand that this guy had already met the female ghost, Xiao Qian?
When Ning Caichen saw Yang Xiao, he immediately asked,""Brother Yang, did you see a white-clothed girl just now?”
Yang Xiao sneered." I've never seen a lady in white before. However, I do have a female ghost in white. Brother Ning, your situation doesn't look good!"”
" What's not good?!" Ning Caichen couldn't help but be stunned.
Yang Xiao knew that this scholar was already possessed. No matter how much he explained, it would be useless. He could only sigh and say,"Let's talk about this later. I'll bring you back first.”
Ning Caichen said anxiously,"But I haven't played this zither yet."
" But what?!" Yang Xiao said impatiently. As he spoke, he did not allow Ning Caichen to have any objections. He grabbed Ning Caichen's body and returned to Lanruo Temple.
On the other side, Yan Chixia almost caught up with Xiao Qian, but he was blocked by the thousand-year-old tree demon. In the past, Yan Chixia and the thousand-year-old tree demon had the same strength, so they were wary of each other. Since he came, although the tree demon killed innocent people, they were also people who deserved to die. Therefore, both sides had been living in peace.
However, both he and the 1,000-year Tree Demon knew that this phenomenon was only temporary. Once either party's strength increased and they had the confidence to kill the other party, they would not hold back.
Therefore, the thousand-year-old Tree Demon was planning to join forces with the Witch of the Black Mountain. Yan Chixia had received Yang Xiao's help and was determined to kill the demon.
The thousand-year-old tree demon was shocked to see Yan Chixia's skills for the first time.""Stinky Taoist priest, we have always stayed out of the way. Why are you meddling in other people's business?”
Yan Chixia said," I don't care about the bad people you killed in the past. But, as long as you kill a good person by mistake, I will enforce justice on behalf of the heavens, except for you, old demon!"”
"Ah, damn it!" The thousand-year-old tree demon let out a sharp howl and disappeared into the dark night. After the hasty exchange of blows, he had become even more wary of Yan Chixia.
"Humph!" Yan Chixia snorted coldly and immediately turned around to leave with his sword.
Although he was not afraid of the thousand-year-old tree demon, he also knew that he might not be able to deal with it with his own strength. Tonight was not the best opportunity to fight.
