Chapter 59 Layout

Qiao Yue hesitated.

She...didn't want to drag anyone down.

Nan Xiao decided to add fuel to the fire: "Second Senior Sister, Fourth Senior Brother, if I were in danger in the future, would you just watch helplessly and not care about me?"

"Of course not." They both answered in unison.

"Whoever dares to bully my junior sister will be killed no matter where he goes." Su Xun held the sword in his hand, his beautiful phoenix eyes full of seriousness.

Qiao Yue took out a handkerchief and gently and carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of Nan Xiao's eyes.

"Whether you are a junior sister, a senior brother, or any of my junior brothers, as long as I am here and I have the ability, I will not let you be bullied."

Nan Xiao raised her head and hugged Qiao Yue's waist. "So, for the same reason, Senior Sister, please don't lock us out of your world, okay?"

"I know this is a dangerous matter. My fourth brother and I are also very worried about my senior sister."

"No matter what happens, as long as we brothers face it together, nothing will be a problem."

"Don't you think so, Senior Sister?"

Although there is not much description of Qiao Yue in the original novel, through those few words, we can see that Qiao Yue is a child who looks cheerful but actually lacks love in his heart.

That's why she fell into it so happily because of Zhou Shiqing's gentleness towards her.

Nan Xiao wanted to let her know that there is a lot of love in this world, including family love, friendship, and fellow-student camaraderie.

There are many people who love her.

And these are more important than love.

"Senior Sister, I think Junior Sister is right. If you had told me and Third Senior Brother last time, we might have caught this evil spirit long ago and would not have given it the opportunity to harm people." Su Xun echoed.

"Okay, I'll listen to Junior Sister this time."

It’s hard to describe this feeling, but it felt like her heart was gently touched and a warmth enveloped her.

Qiao Yue's nose felt a little sour, but she didn't hate this feeling. On the contrary, she liked it very much.

The three brothers and sisters sat around the table and discussed the battle plan for the whole night.

It's dawn

Nan Xiao was so sleepy that he kept dozing off.

"Junior sister, you should take a day off today. I'll just go and tell Elder Qin." Qiao Yue said.

"How can that be possible? I said I came to help, but after refining the pills for half a day, I just quit. What will others think of me?" Nan Xiao took out two refreshing pills and swallowed them. He woke up instantly, feeling more refreshed than drinking coffee.

"Alright then. Junior Sister, please bear with me for two more days. Once we catch the demon spirit, you can have a good rest."

"Uh-huh"

Qiao Yue and Su Xun left.

Nan Xiao washed her face, changed into clean clothes, and started walking towards the villa.

It was still daybreak, and the guards at the villa were quite surprised to see Nan Xiao.

Young Miss's Junior Sister, you've come too early.

Nan Xiao greeted them and walked inside on his own.

Passing by the yard where she was trapped yesterday, she took a special look. Everything in the yard had been cleaned up, and there was no sign that a fierce fight had taken place there yesterday.

She chuckled, hummed an unknown tune, and entered the alchemy room.

Take out the spiritual plants and alchemy furnace needed for alchemy.

It was bright outside.

Other alchemy disciples also arrived one after another. Just like yesterday, none of them even glanced at Nan Xiao and treated her as air.

Everyone spent a few days in peace.

Qiao Yue came to pick up Nan Xiao as usual.

"Junior Sister, are you done?"

Nan Xiao stretched his neck and looked behind her: "Senior Sister, are you alone today?"

Her voice was loud enough for people around her to hear.

Qiao Yue came alone on these days except for the first day. On the following days, she came to pick up Nan Xiao with a group of palace soldiers behind her, making a grand scene.

Qiao Yueling's eyes moved slightly, and she smiled and said, "There's something unusual happening in the east of the city. I've sent people over there."

"Oh~"

Nan Xiao lowered his head, feeling a little unhappy.

"It's only a few steps from here, and you still need someone to pick you up every day. You really treat yourself like a three-year-old child. Don't come out until you're weaned."

Who else could have such a sarcastic tone except the fierce boy on the first day?

Wouldn't it be better to be timid and stay in the sect?

The young man felt contempt in his heart.

Everyone knew the next day that Nan Xiao was assassinated on the first day.

I can only say that she had bad luck.

Even such a small thing can scare me so much that I have to ask a group of people to come and pick me up every day.

It's an eyesore.

Nan Xiao rolled her eyes: "What's wrong, are you jealous?"

The young man sneered: "Why should I be jealous of you? Envious of your cowardice?"

"You're jealous that I have someone who loves me, but you don't." Nan Xiao held Qiao Yue's arm and smiled brightly, "Look, my senior sister comes to pick me up every day, but does your senior sister pay any attention to you?"

"I can pester my senior sister and act like a spoiled child, can you?"

"I can still sleep with my senior sister, can you?"

Jian Mo paused and raised her head. Her usually indifferent face was now full of confusion.

The boy's face flushed. "That's different."

Nan Xiao pursed his lips and said perfunctorily, "Yeah, right, right, if you say it's different, then it's different."

juvenile:"…………"

How on earth was he going to explain to a little kid the term "gender difference"?

She turned around and grabbed Qiao Yue's arm and said, "Senior Sister, let's go."

Qiao Yue suppressed her smile and nodded.

Junior sister definitely did it on purpose.

As the two walked out of the yard, they heard footsteps following them not far away.

"Senior Sister Qiao..."

A cold voice sounded.

The two turned around and were confused when they saw who was coming.

"Junior Sister Jian, what's the matter?"

After all, they live in opposite directions.

It's impossible to meet by chance.

Jian Mo had a tense face and slowly walked up to the two of them. Her cold gaze was fixed on Nan Xiao, and her eyes were dark and unclear.

Nan Xiao's hairs stood up at the sight.

Nan Xiao swallowed and tried hard to recall how he had offended this cold beauty.

Could it be the words you just said?

Come to think of it, a girl’s reputation is important.

She actually forgot the truth that three people make a tiger and gossip can melt gold.

She originally just wanted to piss off the boy, but it would be bad if other people heard it and the truth was distorted by someone with ulterior motives.

Nan Xiao blamed herself and was the first to break the silence and apologize: "Senior Sister Jian, what I just said was all nonsense. Please don't take it to heart."

Before she could finish her words, Jian Mo's hand floated down on Nan Xiao's head.

Her fingertips were cold, and Nan Xiao's body trembled uncontrollably.

"Jian... Senior Sister Jian?"

What on earth does this person want to do???

Nan Xiao wanted to say something else when a cold light flashed in the distance and something was approaching.

She was quick-witted and quick-handed. She grabbed Jian Mo's hand and rolled twice on the ground with her in her arms, avoiding the flying arrow.

"Junior sister...are you okay..."

Qiao Yue used a talisman to block the attack.

The sharp arrows came like rain, with great force.

Nan Xiao helped Jian Mo up and placed her in a safe area: "Don't move here."

Jian Mo nodded.

"Second Senior Sister, let me help you."

"How is Junior Sister Jian?" Qiao Yue asked.

"She's fine."

"Junior sister, it's time for us to close the net." Qiao Yue's eyes were full of excitement.
