Nangong Yu also realized there was something on the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to wipe it, and then showed a smile, looking so adorable that Shangguan Xi was speechless, his eyes filled with helplessness.

Xu Yuehuai watched all this from outside, a smile unconsciously creeping onto her lips. Although many people are just passersby in the process of growing up, there will always be some who stay by your side, or perhaps remain in your sight in another form. And memories beautify everything from the past. In this way, these beautiful things will seem even more beautiful and precious in the future.

It's something that can only be encountered by chance, leaving one with a deep sense of wonder.

Fu Ziyi and Baili Xiuwen sat steadily in their seats. Fu Ziyi's gaze would occasionally fall on Xu Yuehuai, but he didn't say anything. Baili Xiuwen watched the two of them interact, finding it not only funny but also somewhat amusing.

However, none of the parties involved knew what Baili Xiuwen was thinking about this matter.

A moment of silence fell over the air, then Fu Ziyi suddenly spoke up: "What do you want to say?"

Fu Ziyi was a little confused by Xu Yuehuai's question. He felt that Xu Yuehuai had something to say, which was why he asked such a question.

After asking that question, Fu Ziyi's eyes never left Xu Yuehuai, staring at her face as if there was something special about it.

Xu Yuehuai also turned to look at him, and shook her head, "No, I just felt that it had been a long time since we had a proper get-together, so I wanted to have a meal together, that's all."

The purpose was too simple, so simple that it seemed unbelievable. Even the few people who were playing around thought that Xu Yuehuai would definitely have something to say, but no one asked what it was about. They remained silent, waiting for Xu Yuehuai to speak first.

"Is it because of the ruins?" Fu Ziyi thought for a moment and felt that this was the only possibility. He knew that Xu Yuehuai's goal was never to make a name for herself on this second floor. Her goal was always on the floor above, where she wanted to see the person.

Xu Yuehuai paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's true, but today is not the right time to talk about these things. I will definitely explain them to you one by one another day."

Xu Yuehuai took a sip of tea, the tea spreading between her lips and teeth, the rich aroma of tea refreshing and invigorating.

It brings a sense of calm and familiarity.

Seeing her like this, Fu Ziyi knew he was destined not to get any questions out of her today. He sighed softly and said, "Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. But aren't we friends? Shouldn't friends be like Ji Yuanchi, willing to risk their lives for each other?"

When Ji Yuanchi's name was mentioned, Xu Yuehuai's body trembled involuntarily. Speaking of which, it had been a long time since she had visited Brother Pu and Brother Pu Er to see how they were doing.

Once you enter the ruins, getting back is extremely difficult.

With half a month to go before the sect selection competition, an idea slowly began to emerge in Xu Yuehuai's mind.

It would take thirty days to travel from the second floor to the third floor and back, which she simply didn't have time for. But when Qi Guze was around, the ability to tear through the void was indeed a very important thing, as it could save a lot of time.

Thinking about this, Xu Yuehuai felt like she was having a heart attack. Her cultivation had been stuck in this place for a long time, probably because she had been busy traveling around during this period and had no time to do this.

Xu Yuehuai secretly decided that before that, she would first learn the Void Technique so that she could meet Brother Pu and Brother Pu Er before the competition.

"The food's here! Hurry up and move aside, this is very hot!" Nangong Yu rushed over from the kitchen carrying a plate of food, with Shangguan Qi shouting behind him.

"I'm telling you to watch out, don't spill anything on the ground. If you do, I'll make sure you don't get away with it!" Shangguan Xi threatened fiercely.

Nangong Yu placed the dishes on the table before turning around to look at Shangguan Xi. When she saw Shangguan Xi, she made a funny face and said, "Mind your own business! You didn't make these dishes. Shi Mu and Xuan Chi haven't even said anything yet, and you're already getting upset!"

Nangong Yu felt that what she said made a lot of sense, and put her hands on her hips, looking smug.

Shangguan Qi was so angry that her teeth itched, her hands clenched into fists as if she was about to hit Nangong Yu at any moment. "You better watch out, don't think that just because you've said so many smart things, I'll let you off the hook!"

Shangguan Qi pointed at Nangong Yu's nose, "These dishes were all made with great effort by them. They didn't say you can't waste them."

Watching from the side, Xu Yuehuai felt that Nangong Yu was more like a mischievous child in front of Shangguan Xi, without any of the awareness of a senior brother. "I won't listen to you, I just won't listen, nyah nyah nyah!"

Xuan Chi and Shi Mu happened to see this scene when they came out. Shi Mu carefully reminded them, "Senior Brother, Third Senior Sister is not a delicate girl. She won't cry just because you say a few words. She can hit people, and her fists are really hard."

Shi Mu's eyes held a "good luck" look, and upon hearing this, Nangong Yu's playful antics paused, and he hesitated for a moment. But the next second, he mustered his courage and said, "Don't be afraid, who am I? I'm the senior brother! Why would I be afraid of the third junior sister?"

"What a joke!" Nangong Yu said with a smug look on his face, not taking their words seriously at all.

When others noticed Shangguan Xi's expression, they silently moved away from Nangong Yu, as if there were some kind of plague. Shangguan Xi's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she was still holding a plate in her hand, but it did not affect her actions at all. "You are simply courting death!"

After Shangguan Xi finished speaking, a plate flew to Nangong Yu's front. Nangong Yu subconsciously reached out to catch it, but the next second, the bowl shattered in Nangong Yu's hand, and the fragments that broke off even pierced Nangong Yu's flesh, causing him to cry out in pain.

"No, are you serious?! I'm your senior brother! How could you treat me like this!" Nangong Yu looked at his bleeding hand, his face filled with heartache, and his eyes held a hint of resentment as he looked at Shangguan Xi.

Shangguan Xi sneered and said, "You're making a fuss over such a small wound? You'll have a lot more to complain about later."

No sooner had these words been spoken than Shangguan Qi leaped forward, reaching Nangong Yu in front of him. She grabbed his arm with one hand, and the next second Nangong Yu landed on the ground.
