"Let's go down the mountain!"
After spending a night at the peak of Mount Hua, the three of them watched the sunrise the next morning and prepared to head down the mountain.
"You guys can leave first. I still have something to do and need to stay.”
Young Master Yang shook his head after hearing Lu Yi's words.
He was indeed busy. He had collected the soul of the person who had fallen last night.
There were some things that he needed to deal with.
It was impossible for him not to do anything after being schemed against.
Moreover, he was not completely without confidence.
"I see. Then I'll leave something for you to eat. You should be careful on the mountain. When you're done with your business, remember to come to my place. I'll prepare a big meal for you.”
Lu Yi replied. Young Master Yang's martial arts skills were outstanding, so Lu Yi did not have to worry about his safety if he stayed on the mountain.
However, Lu Yi remembered Young Master Yang's martial arts skills.
He naturally hoped that Young Master Yang would come over to his place earlier so that he could consult him.
His dream of traveling the world with a sword might very well come true.
Lu Yi and Ruyan were the only ones left when they left the mountain. This time, Young Master Yang had no intention of keeping Ruyan. Ruyan didn't choose to stay with Young Master Yang either.
She followed Lu Yi down the mountain.
To Lu Yi's disappointment, he didn't see Saint Mary or Liu Yanchang last night.
It was as if that poem was just a very ordinary thing that had happened. Nothing had happened.
Of course, there might be some things that happened that Lu Yi didn't know about.
"Perhaps this isn't the world of the Lotus Lamp, nor is it the world of myths and legends. I'm just thinking too much.”
A poem couldn't prove anything. Perhaps the story he knew was just a myth made up by someone on this limerick.
Moreover, last night, when a person fell off Mount Hua, there was no sign of the Virgin Mary saving him. This also proved something.
If the Third Holy Mother really existed at the peak of Mount Hua, this would definitely not have happened.
Therefore, legends were legends after all. It was too unreliable to pin their hopes on immortals.
"Eh? Why do I feel that something is different?”
Lu Yi noticed something different when he went down the mountain.?
That was, his perception had become much stronger. He could hear conversations and see things further away.
Other than that, his reflexes and strength had also increased significantly. This change seemed to have happened after last night.
However, he did not do anything last night. It was almost the same as usual.
He had just drunk some wine, eaten some food, and even ate a peach. There was nothing special about it.
If one really had to talk about something special, it would be the peach that Young Master Yang had given him. He had also kept the peach pit and prepared to plant it in his own courtyard.
Then, he faced the sunrise early in the morning and practiced on the peak of Mount Hua.
This was a daily habit.
Could it be that when he was practicing at the peak of Mount Hua, he had obtained the essence of the legendary first ray of sunlight, Purple Qi from the East, and thus changed his physique?
In the novels that he had read, there were many such statements.
"Young Master Lu, can I stay at your place for a while?”
Although the road down the mountain was not easy to walk, it was still much faster than going up the mountain. When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, Ruyan, who had been silent all this while, said to Lu Yi.
"Where are you staying? Aren't you going back to the capital? You are the capital's Courtesan Belle."
Lu Yi replied in surprise.?
He thought that after Ruyan left the mountain, she would hurry back to the capital and not stay here.
After all, she had almost lost her life here.
He didn't expect her to stay at his place, which put him in a difficult position.
Because he still had to ask Young Master Yang for guidance on martial arts, and Young Master Yang was very cold towards Ruyan.
If Ruyan stayed at his place, what if Young Master Yang went over and saw her in a bad mood and didn't want to teach him martial arts?
Hua Kui was beautiful, but for Lu Yi, learning martial arts was more important.
"Young Master Lu must have guessed that I didn't fall off the cliff by myself. I was pushed off the cliff by my companions. If I go back to the capital alone, do you think I can make it to the capital?”
Ruyan was silent for a while before she told Lu Yi everything.
In fact, even if she didn't say it out loud, Lu Yi should have guessed something.
"Uh…why would your companion want to harm you?”
This was a very strange question. Ruyan was merely a courtesan of the Dream of Red Chamber. Even if it was to compete for the courtesan, there was no need to harm people's lives, right?
"It's not that they wanted to kill me, but someone else asked them to kill me because I knew something I shouldn't know. They were only preparing to let me die by accident. If they knew that I wasn't dead, they wouldn't be so gentle.”
Ruyan smiled sadly after hearing that. She only figured out the reason last night.
There was no need for her companions to kill her. With her identity, she could not die in the capital, so she chose Mount Hua to make it look like she had accidentally fallen off the cliff.
However, the person who wanted her to die had overlooked her luck. She actually didn't die after falling down the mountain.
Next, if those people knew that she was not dead, they would definitely stop her on the way and not let her return to the capital.
