13. Sunny. Suitable for setting up a bed. Avoid breaking ground.

In the morning sunlight, Qu Feiyan stopped circulating her internal energy in the courtyard.

However, from the still-unresolved fluctuations in internal energy, some knowledgeable martial artists could clearly discern Qu Feiyan's early-stage second-rate cultivation.

After all her internal energy returned to her dantian, Qu Feiyan first glanced at Dongfang Bubai, who was still standing with his eyes closed and surrounded by swirling true energy, and then looked at the stone table next to her.

After her gaze lingered on Chu Qinghe for a few moments, Qu Feiyan suddenly leaned closer to Dongfang Bubai and whispered, "Sister Dongfang."

Hearing Qu Feiyan's voice from the side, Dongfang Bubai slowly opened his eyes and looked at Qu Feiyan.

If it were back then, Qu Feiyan might have already become nervous under Dongfang Bubai's gaze at this moment.

But now, almost a week has passed since Qu Feiyan and Dongfang Bubai arrived at Chu Qinghe's courtyard, and in the process of spending time together, Qu Feiyan has already become familiar with Dongfang Bubai.

Their words and actions were no longer as cautious as they had been at the beginning.

Immediately, under Dongfang Bubai's gaze, Qu Feiyan asked, "Young Master seems to be spacing out again!"

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Bubai glanced at Chu Qinghe.

Seeing Chu Qinghe propping his chin up, looking completely lost in thought, Dongfang Bubai said calmly, "Doesn't he do this every day?"

Qu Feiyan said, "But haven't you noticed that the young master has been spending an unusually long time spacing out these past few days?"

After thinking about what Qu Feiyan said, Dongfang Bubai realized that it was just as Qu Feiyan had said.

In recent days, Chu Qinghe has been spending most of his free time in this kind of daze.

Moreover, it often takes more than half an hour.

In response, Dongfang Bubai nodded and said, "It has taken a bit longer."

Before Qu Feiyan could respond, Dongfang Bubai calmly added, "Is there anything wrong?"

As he spoke, Dongfang Bubai glanced at Qu Feiyan and said, "Instead of wasting time thinking about him, you should cultivate more. At this point, your Blood Fiend Palm is only at the level of 'proficient'."

"You've already spent so much time on a mere Xuan-rank martial art. What will happen if you were to learn a high-rank martial art in the future? Do you want to spend decades on it?"

"Practice for an extra half hour today."

Hearing Dongfang Bubai's words, Qu Feiyan felt a surge of anxiety.

"No!"

Everything comes at a price.

Spending so much time together has certainly brought Qu Feiyan and Dongfang Bubai closer, making Qu Feiyan less afraid of Dongfang Bubai than she was at the beginning.

But with every gain comes a loss.

Just like these past two days, seeing Qu Feiyan's lazy attitude, Dongfang Bubai actually took the initiative to supervise Qu Feiyan's training.

This made Qu Feiyan suddenly miss the cold and indifferent look of Dongfang Bubai back then.

After a moment, Qu Feiyan said ingratiatingly, "How about I wash Young Master's dirty clothes for you every day tomorrow, Sister Dongfang, and you don't have to make me do extra practice today?"

Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Dongfang Bubai sneered at her and said, "Heh, you still have time to do laundry? It seems the extra training time is still a bit short. You'll have to train for an extra hour today!"

"ha?"

Upon hearing this, Qu Feiyan was completely stunned, her mind buzzing.

Qu Feiyan couldn't understand why her offer to help Dongfang Bubai wash Chu Qinghe's clothes had resulted in such a result.

However, seeing Dongfang Bubai standing to the side with his eyes closed, seemingly unwilling to say anything more, Qu Feiyan could only pout listlessly and then begin to circulate her inner energy to practice the Blood Fiend Palm.

They practically had "reluctant" written all over their faces.

However, at that moment, Dongfang Bubai seemed to sense something, and his eyes, which had just been closed, suddenly reopened.

Then, with the flow of his true energy, his figure flashed and disappeared into the courtyard as quickly as a ghost.

Qu Feiyan was not surprised by Dongfang Bubai's sudden departure. Chu Qinghe, who had just finished a simulated battle, continued to play the next simulated battle after cooling the tea in his cup.

A dozen or so breaths later, in a small alley no more than a hundred meters away from Chu Qinghe's residence, in the eyes of Sang Sanniang and the other members of the Sun Moon Divine Cult, Dongfang Bubai appeared as if he had teleported.

Upon seeing Dongfang Bubai, Sang Sanniang and the others immediately knelt on one knee.

"Greetings, Master. May you be accomplished in both literature and martial arts, and unify the martial world."

With his gaze fixed on Sang San Niang, Dongfang Bubai asked indifferently, "What is it?"

Sang San Niang quickly replied, "Reporting to the Master, according to a message sent by carrier pigeon from the disciples guarding the nearby Yuyang City, a woman whose appearance and temperament resemble the Palace Master of Yihua Palace is heading towards Yushui City."

"If nothing unexpected happens, we should arrive in Yushui City in about an incense stick's time."

Upon hearing what Sang San Niang said, Dongfang Bubai's eyes lit up.

Is it finally coming?

As he spoke, Dongfang Bubai also looked towards the north of Yuyang City.

After pondering for a few moments, Dongfang Bubai coldly said, "I understand."

As soon as the words fell, Dongfang Bubai turned and dodged away.

A few breaths later, Dongfang Bubai had already returned to the courtyard where Chu Qinghe was.

After returning to the courtyard, Dongfang Bubai's gaze lingered on Qu Feiyan for a moment before he walked towards Chu Qinghe.

After walking up to Chu Qinghe, Dongfang Bubai calmly said, "There are some things that need to be taken care of, and it may take a while."

Upon hearing the sound, Chu Qinghe, who had interrupted the simulated battle, slightly raised his eyes to look at Dongfang Bubai.
