In the courtyard of an inn.
"Shua-"
As the cold light shone, Shi Feixuan danced the longsword in her hand like a silver snake, and it was so tight that no wind could pass through it.?
However, at this moment, Qi Lingyun's figure suddenly flashed across her mind. Her body froze, and her breathing instantly became chaotic. She could no longer dance with her sword.
“……”
She looked at the sword in her hand, frowned, and remained silent.
"Pa, pa, pa, pa!"
At this moment, a round of applause rang out.
Then, a man's voice was heard."I've long heard that the Sword Art of Compassionate Voyage is unrivaled in power. Now that I've seen it, it's indeed extraordinary.”At this point, his voice paused for a moment before he continued,"It's a pity that Miss Shi's heart was in a mess and your sword art wasn't complete.”
"I didn't expect that Young Master Hou, as the successor of the Flower-Space Sect, would act so sneakily.”
? Shi Feixuan's face turned cold, and her tone was unfriendly.
Someone came.
It was Hou Xibai, who was known as the Amorous Young Master. The two of them had met before. This fellow was like a dog skin plaster, appearing in front of her from time to time. It was extremely annoying.
"No, no."
Hou Xibai flung away the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile,""Miss Shi, you misunderstood. I just couldn't bear to see you fall into the enemy's trap because of a flaw in your state of mind, so I've been secretly taking care of you.”
After saying that, he narrowed his eyes and said calmly,"Miss Shi, can you tell me which lucky person has won your heart?”
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
? Shi Feixuan raised her longsword and said coldly.?
“……”
Hou Xibai was silent for a moment. When he saw that Shi Feixuan did not look like she was lying, he came to a realization."I see. It seems that Miss Shi…is really clueless about matters between men and women.”
After saying that, he shook his head in a self-deprecating manner.
He didn't expect that the person he admired had a crush on someone, and he didn't even know about it.
"If you dare to spout nonsense again, don't blame Feixuan for taking action.”
Shi Feixuan became more and more frustrated after hearing those words, and her patience was also disappearing bit by bit.?
In fact, if it was in the past, she would never be so easily affected by others.
But for some reason.
Ever since she left Lanruo Temple, her mood had been fluctuating greatly.
The sword technique that was originally as easy as moving his arms and fingers seemed to have rusted, and unnecessary flaws often appeared.
"Miss Shi, do you still not understand?"
Hou Xibai fanned himself and sighed."The person that flashed through your mind just now is the flaw of your sword technique. In other words…you have fallen in love with him.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Tsk!"
Shi Feixuan swung the longsword in her hand.?
A crescent-shaped sword Qi visible to the naked eye instantly slashed toward Hou Xibai.
Seeing this.
Hou Xibai's expression tensed up. He hurriedly used the Flower-swimming Movement Technique and narrowly dodged the attack.
Just as he was preparing to defend against the next attack, he noticed that Shi Feixuan did not continue attacking. Instead, she was looking at him with an indifferent gaze.?
"If you dare to say another word, I'll really attack.”
Shi Feixuan said as she raised her longsword.?
So...
Was that attack just a warning?
Hou Xibai glanced at the wall that had been cut in half behind him. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he could only cup his hands in salute. He leaped up and elegantly disappeared before Shi Feixuan.?
“……”
Shi Feixuan was silent for a moment, and a hint of pain suddenly flashed across her face.?
Immediately after, a trace of blood slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Qi deviation?
Panic appeared in her eyes. She quickly sat cross-legged on the ground and began to cultivate the inner force of the Merciful Boathouse.
After an unknown amount of time.
"Phew-"
Shi Feixuan slowly opened her eyes and heaved a sigh of relief.?
Although her face was still a little pale, at least she was fine.
Temporarily.
At this moment.
Footsteps sounded from not far away.
Shi Feixuan stood up and turned her head to look with a calm expression. When she saw that it was a group of nuns who were preparing to stay in the inn, she decided to ignore them.?
Just as she was about to leave.
The conversation between the nuns caught her attention.
"Master, will we return the way we came after we participate in the Golden Basin Washing Ceremony with Martial Uncle Liu?”
The one who spoke was a cute little nun.
"I don't think so. When the time comes, we'll take the boat and return to Mount Heng.”
"Ah?"
"I was thinking of returning to repay Senior Brother Chen for saving my life."”
"Yilin, there's no rush to repay your kindness. There will be a chance in the future.”
"Oh."
“……”
The voice gradually faded away.
Shi Feixuan stood on the spot with a slight frown.?
When she heard that familiar name, her inner breath, which had already calmed down, actually became a little chaotic again.
What was going on?
Could it be that I really fell in love with Qi Lingyun, just like Hou Xibai said?
……
Just as Shi Feixuan was about to return to her room...
At the corner.
However, she met the little nun who was talking about Qi Lingyun just now.
As if she was possessed, she walked in front of the little nun and asked indifferently,"I heard what you said just now. You know senior brother Chen?”
？？
Yi Lin blinked her eyes, her face full of doubt."Sister, do you know Senior Brother Chen?”
"Yes."
Shi Feixuan nodded, then said,""Can you tell me how you know him?”
"Alright,"
Yi Lin did not have the slightest bit of scheming. Seeing that this beautiful sister in front of her also knew Qi Lingyun, she immediately smiled and told him.
Gradually.
A faint smile appeared on Shi Feixuan's originally expressionless face.?
"Sister, you look really good when you smile."
Yi Lin said enviously.
She was like a fairy, and she was a good match for Senior Brother Liaochen.
“……”
? Shi Feixuan was stunned, then she asked," Did I laugh just now?"?”
She clearly didn't want to laugh, so why did this little nun say that she had just laughed?
"Yes, I am."
Yi Lin blinked her eyes and hesitated for a moment before asking softly,""Right, big sister, what is your relationship with Senior Brother Liaochen?”
“……”
This question stumped Shi Feixuan.?
Logically speaking, she should be considered Qi Lingyun's fiancée, even if it was only on paper.
But-
"We can be considered friends."
? In the end, Shi Feixuan forced out those words.
"Yilin, where are you?"
At this moment, a middle-aged woman's voice came from not far away.
"Ah, my master is calling me!"
Yi Lin panicked and quickly said,"I'll go first."”
After saying that, he hurriedly ran in the direction of the sound.
Shi Feixuan stood rooted to the spot for a moment. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.?
Because she realized.
His originally chaotic inner breath had actually completely recovered at this time, and it became as calm as ice.
This--
What was going on?
A hint of doubt appeared in Shi Feixuan's eyes.?
Could it be…
Was it just because he heard news about that person?
