This time, Lu Xueqi seemed to have had a long dream. It was so long that she did not expect that she would wake up again.
In her dream, she seemed to have arrived at a place where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant. It was like a fairyland. In a trance, she only felt that the place was very beautiful. Even Little Bamboo Peak was not as beautiful as that place.
The only bad thing was that the birds here seemed to be too noisy. They kept chirping in her ears, making her wave her hands desperately to chase them away.
These noisy birds! So noisy ~
Lu Xueqi suddenly opened her eyes. What greeted her eyes was the blue sky and the tall mountains. A breeze blew, and the mountains were filled with verdant trees. The green shadows danced, and the trees surged. This world was filled with breathtaking beauty.
So beautiful! I must still be dreaming?
Lu Xueqi could not help but think this way. Suddenly, a gentle question sounded in her ear," Xueqi, you're awake!"
Lu Xueqi was stunned. She looked around and saw Xiao Yicai in a long robe sitting not far from her. Beside her, a girl in green clothes was lying quietly.
We survived!
The most beautiful woman in the world revealed the most beautiful smile in the world to the green mountains and blue sky.
………….
With a crackling sound, the flames swallowed the firewood, making crisp sounds and emitting waves of light smoke. Xiao Yicai had already started the bonfire.
Bi Yao and Lu Xueqi sat next to the fire. At this moment, they were very close to each other. There seemed to be no difference between the righteous and the evil here. There was only the same joy of being reborn after a disaster slowly appeared on their faces.
The two of them did not speak. They just quietly watched Xiao Yicai use a thick branch to clean up a wild rabbit that he had just caught and then put it on the fire to roast it. As the flames burned, the rabbit meat gradually turned golden yellow, and the fat also condensed into water droplets and dripped down.
Under the mountain forest, a fragrant and delicious smell spread everywhere. They were very hungry in the cave. Bi Yao and Lu Xueqi couldn't help but salivate. They swallowed their saliva, but they saw that Xiao Yicai wasn't in a hurry. He looked at the fire and habitually reached his hand to his waist. Suddenly, his face froze, and then he revealed a happy expression.
"What?" Bi Yao was surprised.
Xiao Yicai happily took out a small bag from his waist and said with a smile,""I didn't expect that the dry rations would be lost, but these things are still here. I didn't notice it a few days ago!”
The two girls looked at the small bag and saw Xiao Yicai carefully opening it, revealing a few small bottles and jars. Curious, they picked up a few and smelled them. They were stunned and looked at Xiao Yicai, almost speechless."This, this is some salt seasoning…"
They had never seen such a cultivator. He actually came out with spices on him. Moreover, this person was the eldest senior brother of the Qingyun Sect.
Xiao Yicai was all smiles. I was sent to the Great Bamboo Peak by my master in the past and have been helping out in the kitchen. For convenience's sake, I've always carried these things with me. I didn't expect them to come in handy today.”
Bi Yao and Lu Xueqi looked at each other, then looked up and down at Xiao Yicai. They were speechless for a moment. They watched as he carefully sprinkled the five-spice or salt on the rabbit meat, then slowly turned the branches to roast it. The fragrance in the air became stronger.
After a while, Xiao Yi leaned closer to take a sniff and said happily,""Alright, you can eat now."
Biyao and Lu Xueqi had been waiting impatiently for a long time. They felt that the fragrance was almost everywhere, penetrating through the pores of their bodies. After smelling it, their bodies seemed to float up and became much lighter. As for their mouths, it was needless to say. If they were not carefully hidden, Xiao Yicai would have heard the sound of their stomachs growling.
When she heard Xiao Yicai say that it was finally done, the golden and fragrant rabbit in front of her almost drooled. Bi Yao couldn't help but reach out her hand. Unexpectedly, she forgot about it for a moment. When she touched it, she let out an " Ah " and retracted her hand. She was scalded.
"Don't be anxious!" Xiao Yicai smiled.”As he spoke, he took the branch away from the fire and moved it up and down, letting the oil flow down. The temperature of the meat also dropped a little. Then, he carefully tore off a rabbit's hind leg and handed it to Bi Yao. He smiled and said,"Eat!"
Biyao immediately reached out and took the rabbit meat. Just as she was about to open her mouth, she suddenly saw Xiao Yicai smiling gently at her. The sunlight in the forest shone through the dense leaves and sprinkled down bit by bit. Some of it landed on his face, and it was actually so bright.
For some reason, her face suddenly turned red. She turned her head away from Xiao Yicai and started eating.
Xiao Yicai didn't mind. He tore off another rabbit leg and blew on it gently. It felt a little cold, so he handed it to Lu Xueqi."Xueqi, this is for you ~"
Lu Xueqi glanced at him and took it gently. She didn't wolf it down like Biyao, but put it by her mouth and took a small bite.
"How is it? Is this meat delicious?”Xiao Yicai had been watching her quietly. After she finished the meat, he asked softly.
" Mm..." Lu Xueqi nodded lightly. She blushed slightly under his gaze. The breeze from the depths of the forest gently blew her soft long hair and brushed her fair face.
Xiao Yicai was stunned. Lu Xueqi stretched out her fair little hand and pointed to the side.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yicai couldn't help but look to the left, but he met Bi Yao's pitiful gaze.
"I…finished eating." Bi Yao's beautiful hands were covered in oil. There was a faint gentleness on her face, but there was also a hint of shyness. She looked at Xiao Yicai pitifully.
Xiao Yicai looked at her and then at the beautiful Lu Xueqi beside her. He quickly tore off another rabbit leg and handed it over.
Bi Yao took it, but this time, she was much gentler. She also took a small bite like Lu Xueqi and looked at him with a gentle gaze. There was an indescribable charm in her eyes. She said with a low voice and a smile,"This is very delicious. The most delicious thing I've ever eaten in my life is this rabbit you're roasting right now.”
Xiao Yicai's heart skipped a beat. He saw that Biyao's beautiful face was half-smiling and half-serious as she spoke. His heart shook, but when he thought of her identity, he was shocked and didn't dare to think further."Actually, it's nothing. I've eaten steamed sleep fish in Heyang City before. It's much better than this.”
Bi Yao shook her head and said faintly,"I've eaten that sleeping fish before, but I just feel that it's not as delicious as this rabbit meat!"”
Xiao Yicai fell silent. He didn't know why, but he didn't want to have any interaction with this beautiful woman. There were too many concerns in this world. Not everyone could enjoy the grace of a beauty.
The rabbit was soon finished by the three of them. This was the first time in many days that he had eaten his fill. It was really a happy thing. Bi Yao and Lu Xueqi found another mountain stream. The two of them washed by the water and unconsciously felt a little sleepy.
Speaking of which, his nerves had always been tense in the belly of the mountain. He felt that he had been walking on the edge of life and death. Now that he came out, his entire body relaxed and his sleepiness rose.
Bi Yao couldn't support him first and fell asleep on a small patch of grass beside the stream.
"Junior Sister Lu, if you're tired, you should rest for a while. Don't worry, I'm here!”Xiao Yicai looked at the weak Lu Xueqi and said.
" Mm..." Lu Xueqi nodded lightly. She had been suffering physically and mentally for the past few days, and she felt tired. She lay down beside Biyao. The warm sunlight in the sky gently sprinkled on her and Biyao's faces. They were as fair as jade, and their skin was whiter than snow. It was almost as if they could be broken by a blow.
At this moment, the two most beautiful women in the world had their eyes closed as they lay there quietly. A gentle breeze blew, lifting the ends of their hair. Under the sunlight, they emitted a gentle glow.
However, their faces were peaceful at this moment. There was a faint smile on their lips as they slept peacefully.
The breeze in the forest was still blowing gently. It blew past the treetops, the green leaves, and the quietly flowing stream. It created a gentle ripple and finally brushed past Xiao Yicai's body.
He did not sleep. He just looked at the two women and quietly guarded them. His heart was calm, as if what he was protecting was everything in his life. As for the rest, the righteous path of the world, the Qingyun Sect's orthodoxy, they did not seem to matter.
At that moment, the sunlight shone on Xiao Yicai's face, making him look especially radiant.
………………
When Xiao Yicai remembered something again, it was already the morning sun the next day. He never thought that he would just silently look at these two beautiful women for an entire day and night.
When he saw the rising sun in the morning, Xiao Yi suddenly came back to his senses. At that moment, an inexplicable fear filled his entire heart. In the past, he had worked hard and suffered hardships to stand out from his fellow disciples. Nearly a hundred years of hard work and painstaking endurance were all for the supreme power in the world.
But now, beside the most beautiful woman in the world, he was lost and abandoned all his dreams of revenge.
To him, after nearly a hundred years of forbearance, he had already learned how to control his emotions. In the past, when he was in the Qingyun Sect and interacted with Tian Ling 'er, the reason why he was able to interact with her freely was because she was simple-minded. She would listen to him no matter what he asked. There was no need to hide anything.
However, the person he was facing now was not Tian Ling 'er, but Lu Xueqi and Biyao. These two women were beautiful and intelligent, and he had almost lost his way.
In this world, there were many people who did not want to have too many worries. Xiao Yicai was undoubtedly one of them.
To achieve great things, one must have the world in mind. In the past, the black-hearted old man of the Demonic Sect did not hesitate to let down Madam Golden Bell of the Tang Sect. Xiao Yicai had always compared himself to these people. He thought that he was just like them, decisive and decisive. For his goals, he would do anything. As long as it was beneficial to him, he would do it.
For example, for the cultivation of the Tomes of Arcane, he could risk universal condemnation and use Puzhi's dying wish as an excuse to peep at the Wordless Jade Wall of the Chord Temple. Back at the Great Bamboo Peak, he could have lied to Zhang Xiaofan without any guilt in order to obtain the Brahma Prajna. In order to successfully inherit the position of sect leader in the future, he would rather learn from Qi Hao and lay his hands on a little girl. In order to reduce the number of enemies he would face in the future, he didn't hesitate to take the risk and steal Zhang Xiaofan's soul.
He had once arrogantly thought that with the experience of two lifetimes, coupled with many years of cultivation experience, and a long period of self-restraint, his temperament had long been tempered and would not be shaken by anything.
But now, facing the two most beautiful women in the world, he finally understood that he was so vulnerable when facing the seven emotions and six desires.
"Senior Brother Xiao!" A gentle call woke Xiao Yicai from his deep thoughts. He suddenly came back to his senses and saw Lu Xueqi looking at him nervously.
On the other side, Bi Yao had also woken up. Her bright eyes were looking at him faintly.
At this moment, the sky was bright, and birds chirped in the mountains, crisp and pleasant to the ear.
"I'm fine. I'm just thinking about something!”
Xiao Yicai explained lightly. He walked to the side of the stream, put his hands together, and splashed a handful of water on his face. A cool feeling penetrated into his heart. His expression could not help but clear up. He stood up again and regained his confident expression.
He stood up and waited quietly for Lu Xueqi and Biyao to wash up by the water.
At this moment, he looked at Bi Yao and hesitated for a moment before saying,"Miss Bi Yao, we were fortunate enough to survive and escape from that mountain. You and I can be considered to have made friends. However, we have different paths and can't work together.”
Bi Yao squatted by the water and didn't get up, but her body seemed to tremble. Xiao Yi couldn't see her expression. After a while, he heard her low voice say,""Oh, is it a different Dao?"
Xiao Yicai nodded and said," Yes, I'm a righteous person. You're a demonic person. My teacher taught me since I was young that good and evil cannot coexist. The next time we meet, I'm afraid we'll be enemies and not friends."”
Lu Xueqi's body trembled. She glanced at Xiao Yicai and then at Biyao, remaining silent.
Bi Yao stared blankly at the hazy figure reflected in the clear water and muttered,"Enemies?"
Xiao Yicai replied," Yes, we have a clear distinction between gratitude and hatred. In the Dripping Blood Cave, you didn't say that you attacked me while I was cultivating. Therefore, I won't attack you now." However, there was a difference between the righteous and the evil. If they met in the future, they would naturally be enemies.”
Bi Yao suddenly stood up and turned her head to look at the two of them."Why don't, why don't you join our sacred cult! I recommend you to my father. He has always loved talent and will definitely be willing to put you in an important position. More importantly, we are no longer enemies.”
Xiao Yicai's face darkened and he said,""Miss Bi Yao, don't speak nonsense. We are upright people of the righteous path, so how can we be associated with the sinister and cunning people of your Demon Cult? We have different paths and can't work together, so let us part ways here.
Bi Yao revealed a cold smile, and her words became sharp and cold."Righteous path? The man-made sins of the righteous path are no less than those of the demonic path! During the great war between the Righteous Dao and the Demonic Dao, didn't your immortals and ancestors kill anyone they saw? They didn't even spare the old, the weak, women, and children!”
Xiao Yicai laughed coldly and said,"The remnants of the Demonic Sect are sinister and evil. Everyone should kill them."”
"I'm also a demon from the Demon Cult. Come and kill me now, Hero Xiao of the Qingyun Sect!" Biyao said angrily.
"You…" Xiao Yicai flew into a rage, but was stopped by Lu Xueqi. She glanced at Biyao. The two of them were in the Blood Dripping Cave, and they were going through life and death together. Her heart softened, and she lowered her voice and said gently,"Miss Bi Yao, our Qingyun Sect has strict rules. Disciples are strictly prohibited from interacting with the Demon Cult. I grew up in Qingyun and don't dare to violate them. "If we meet again in the future, if you can repent and abandon the darkness for the light, I'll definitely use my life to guarantee that you'll enter the right path…" Her words were originally meant to be kind, but Biyao didn't seem to appreciate it.
Her face was full of ridicule and she was laughing coldly."I can't even go with your bullshit righteous path.”
But at this time, Xiao Yicai completely ignored him. With a shake of his hand, he rode the Seven Stars Sword and whistled away.
Lu Xueqi looked at Bi Yao and said softly,"Take care." With that, he turned around and chased after Xiao Yicai in the blue light.
Bi Yao watched as the two sword lights slowly walked away and gradually disappeared into the horizon. Suddenly, her heart felt empty, as if she had lost something important. She lost all her energy and slowly sat down. Her gaze wandered as she stood rooted to the ground, tears unknowingly flowing down her face.
She sat there for a long time until she suddenly realized that the crisp chirping of the birds in the forest behind her had suddenly quieted down. It was as if she had sensed a fierce smell and did not dare to make a sound.
Then, she saw a black shadow slowly move out from behind her and envelop her.
Although it was daytime, for some reason, the sky seemed to have darkened.
Bi Yao suddenly turned her head and looked at the person behind her in a daze. After a while, she suddenly cried out in grief," Father!..." She threw herself into that person's arms.
The shadow seemed to be startled for a moment, as if he had never expected Bi Yao to do such a thing. However, when he saw that his daughter had escaped from the disaster, his joy could no longer be concealed.
