Chapter 35 Chapter 35 "Jealous of Each Other"
After Ye Yunxi stopped, the group led by the leader of the Yunlan Sect also looked over and saw several snow-green figures on the upper floor. They all stopped at the same time.
He is a disciple of the Shuanghua Sect.
Ning Shuangchen went downstairs, passed by them, stopped for a moment, looked at the leader of the Yunlan Sect, and nodded slightly.
Although the Shuanghua Sect and the Yunlan Sect were at odds, based on seniority, the leader of the Yunlan Sect was his elder after all.
Seeing him go downstairs, Ye Yunxi quickly looked away, lowered her eyes as if she didn't see anything, but her heart beat faster for no reason.
A snow-blue figure came towards him, and when it was about to reach him, it slowly walked past his side.
Although he did not stop, Ye Yunxi clearly felt that the other person's gaze paused on him briefly when they passed each other.
After those figures left the inn, Song Xuezhou said, "It seems that the people from Shuanghua Sect arrived yesterday."
The leader of the Yunlan Sect was not surprised and simply said, "They came quite quickly this time."
Song Xuezhou then went on to talk about the situation on the demon cultivators' side.
Ye Yunxi still followed them, but his mind had already drifted away with that figure, until the leader of the Yunlan Sect called him again.
"Yun'er?"
Only then did Ye Yunxi come back to his senses.
Hearing his senior brother Song Xuezhou say: "Master, please rest in the inn first, and I will go to investigate again."
After hearing this, Ye Yunxi quickly followed up and said, "I want to go with you, brother too."
After saying this, fearing that his father would disagree, he pursed his lips, shook his arm and called out, "Dad..."
The leader of the Yunlan Sect had no intention of detaining him. After a pause, he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
Unexpectedly, his father relented so quickly. Ye Yunxi's eyes lit up immediately, and he turned to Song Xuezhou and said, "Brother, let's go."
As soon as he turned around, the leader of the Yunlan Sect called him back and said with a fake stern face, "Remember not to cause trouble for your senior brother."
Ye Yunxi replied casually: "I understand."
He didn't even turn his head.
The leader of the Yunlan Sect stood there, watching them leave the inn. He couldn't help but stroke his beard and sighed, "The child has grown up and has his own thoughts."
The last time they came to Qingzhou was a month ago, when the Qingxu Secret Realm was revealed. In search of spiritual objects, many major sects came there, including their Yunlan Sect.
At that time, Ye Yunxi didn't know that so many things would happen between him and Ning Shuangchen later.
He just thought that Ning Shuangchen was a really annoying person. She opposed him in everything he did and he couldn't stand anything about her.
And now, the annoying person had just walked out of the inn and disappeared.
The uncle said that he would find the answer he wanted at the foot of the mountain.
What is the answer?
Ye Yunxi still couldn't figure it out, and followed his senior brother absent-mindedly, walking together on the busy and lively street.
Although Qingzhou is located at the junction of the immortal and demon worlds, most of the local people are ordinary people. Because of the Qingxu secret realm and the appearance of monsters, there have been many more cultivators like them in the city in recent months.
Song Xuezhou held the sword in hand and helped him to push through the crowd while he said slowly, "I heard that monsters often appear at night. It's still early now, so let's go meet your sister first."
When Senior Sister Mu Qinglan first arrived in Qingzhou, she went ahead with Junior Sister to investigate the traces of the monster and did not go to the inn with them.
Ye Yunxi was looking around at the moment, not paying any attention to what his senior brother said.
Until I heard a sentence out of the blue, "Yunxi seems a little absent-minded today."
Just now in the inn, Song Xuezhou vaguely felt that the person next to him was distracted and looked absent-minded. After leaving the inn, he looked around as if he was looking for someone.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yunxi immediately retracted his gaze, blinked his long eyelashes, and said hesitantly: "I, I was just thinking that the monster sounded unusual. I wonder how my sisters are doing now, and whether they have discovered anything..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar and gentle voice came from the crowd in front.
"Yunxi."
Ye Yunxi raised his eyes and looked, and it was his senior sister Mu Qinglan and the younger junior sister who had come down the mountain with him.
The junior sister has been a member of the Yunlan Sect for less than two years. She failed to enter the Qingxu Secret Realm last time. This is her first time in Qingzhou, so she is naturally curious about everything around her.
Before he even got close, he squeezed into the crowd, waved his hands and shouted from a distance: "Senior Brother Yunxi! Senior Brother Xuezhou!"
They walked along the crowd and stopped in front of a stall selling various magical weapons. The four of them met on the busy street.
Song Xuezhou started to ask: "Have you found any new traces?"
Mu Qinglan shook her head when she heard this: "This monster is very good at hiding its aura. I couldn't find out where it went even with the tracking technique. It seems that I can only wait for it to show up on its own."
Then he looked at Ye Yunxi and asked, "What about you guys?"
Song Xuezhou said, "Yunxi and I are about to go check again. Have you finished your investigation?"
"We have checked several places in the east and west of the city, and we still have to check the north and south of the city." The younger sister took over and said, "By the way, Senior Sister Qinglan and I just ran into someone from the Shuanghua Sect."
Frost Flower Sect...
Ye Yunxi paused when he heard these words, and asked unconsciously, "When? Where?"
"Just now." Hearing his question, the little sister did not think much and answered truthfully: "In front of a shop on the corner of the street over there."
In the shop on the corner, Ning Shuangchen was standing in front of the counter, carefully selecting a headband. Several disciples of the Shuanghua Sect were waiting outside the door.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "These are the latest styles. Sir, please take a look and see if you like any of them. If not, I will get more for you."
Ning Shuangchen picked slowly, her eyes falling on a bright red headband decorated with jade ornaments. She thought the man would like it.
He stared at it for a while and said, "This is it. Wrap it for me."
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded and said okay.
After buying the headband, Ning Shuangchen turned around and walked out of the shop. As soon as she reached the door, she saw the light green figure standing in the crowd.
It was Ye Yunxi who had just passed by in the inn.
At this moment, he seemed to be chatting with the little junior sister in front of him. The two looked very familiar with each other and their figures were very close.
Together with his junior sister again...
His eyes dimmed slightly, and became deeper, staring fixedly in that direction.
Until a disciple who was waiting outside the shop called him.
"Young Master."
Ning Shuangchen then slowly retracted his gaze and turned his head to look. It turned out that several female cultivators holding long swords were walking towards him from the other side.
Several people passed by the shop entrance. The person walking in front saw him and stopped, and took the initiative to greet him, "Master Ning, long time no see."
She is a female disciple from another sword-cultivating sect. I seem to have met her at last year's sect competition.
Ning Shuangchen had no impression of her. Although she did not recognize her, she still replied politely, "Long time no see."
They were standing at the door of the shop.
Hearing that people from the Frost Flower Sect were also nearby, Ye Yunxi looked in the direction of his junior sister's finger and happened to see Ning Shuangchen standing with several female cultivators.
He had seen those female cultivators at the sect competition.
Ning Shuangchen knows them?
Seeing how they were having a great conversation, Ye Yunxi couldn't help but frown.
He couldn't help but think of the time when they were in the forbidden area. He asked Ning Shuangchen if she had ever kissed anyone else. Ning Shuangchen didn't answer him directly, but just asked him to guess.
Maybe Ning Shuangchen has already been with someone else...
Seeing his fixed gaze, the little sister stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, and asked, "Senior Brother Yunxi, what's wrong with you?"
Ye Yunxi frowned a little in annoyance, but after hearing the question from his junior sister, he calmed down and tried hard to suppress the annoyance in his heart.
Who Ning Shuangchen talks to, who she is with, what kind of people she likes, what does it have to do with him?
He and Ning Shuangchen were just old enemies. Even though they had practiced spiritual cultivation together, they were still old enemies.
That's all.
But why...
Why is he so upset?
Ye Yunxi turned away gloomily and shook his head, but his voice was a little deep: "It's okay, let's go."
The junior sister just said "oh", thinking that he didn't want to see the people from the Frost Flower Sect, and she shut up silently without asking any more questions.
Song Xuezhou and Mu Qinglan looked at each other.
Ye Yunxi turned around and walked in the completely opposite direction.
Song Xuezhou held up his sword, stepped forward and said, "Let's go to the south of the city together."
The four of them went to the south of the city together.
As expected, the monster did not appear during the day, and they did not find any trace of it.
So, after dark, several people returned to Xianlai Posthouse.
Ye Yunxi remained silent all the way. After entering the inn, he went straight back to the guest room on the second floor.
For a whole half day, his mind was filled with images of Ning Shuangchen and the female cultivator together, and he didn't even notice the leader of the Yunlan Sect walking past him.
The leader of the Yunlan Sect was stunned for a moment and wanted to call him, but he stopped after opening his mouth and turned to ask the people who came in from behind.
He looked at Song Xuezhou who was at the front and called him, "Xuezhou, what happened to Yun'er?"
Song Xuezhou glanced at the figure going upstairs, thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe he ran into someone from the Shuanghua Sect on the street."
Ever since he met the people from the Shuanghua Sect, he felt that their junior brother had become a little strange.
The leader of the Yunlan Sect asked, "Who is Ning Shuangchen?"
Song Xuezhou nodded.
The leader of the Yunlan Sect frowned slightly upon hearing this. Knowing that Ye Yunxi and Ning Shuangchen had never been on good terms with each other, he frowned and asked, "Did Yun'er get bullied by him?"
Song Xuezhou shook his head: "We just met, but we didn't fight."
No fight?
That's strange.
Whenever these two met in the past, they would fight until the winner was decided.
The leader of the Yunlan Sect was feeling confused.
Mu Qinglan took over the conversation at this time and said in a gentle voice: "Yunxi has been following us for a day and may be tired. Master, don't worry."
Are you really tired?
I hope so…
The leader of the Yunlan Sect looked up at the second floor and heard the door upstairs open and close. He paused for a moment and sighed lightly.
He put the matter aside for the moment, and soon his expression became serious again. He frowned and asked, "How was your investigation today?"
Upstairs, Ye Yunxi returned to the guest room.
As soon as I closed the door, a slightly lazy voice came from the other side of the room.
"You're back?"
With the night wind blowing to my ears.
Ye Yunxi was startled when he heard the sound, then turned around suddenly to look.
I saw that the two windows were opened at some point, the bright moon was hanging in the sky, the night wind was blowing in from the window, and a snow-blue figure was half-sitting by the window with his legs bent.
Who else besides Ning Shuangchen?
Ye Yunxi couldn't help but frown.
He had no idea when this person came...
Just as I was about to ask him, I heard Ning Shuangchen say, "Have you finished talking to your junior sister?"
Hearing him mention Junior Sister, Ye Yunxi's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he said impatiently with a stern face: "What does it have to do with you!"
It was indeed none of his business, but when he thought of them talking and laughing on the street, he felt as if his heart was blocked by something and felt extremely unhappy.
Seeing Ning Shuangchen jumping from the window into the house, Ye Yunxi immediately became alert, put his hand on the hilt of the sword, frowned and said, "Who let you in? What do you want to do?"
When I'm not seeing him, I can't help but think about him, but when we really meet, I don't know why I feel uneasy.
Ye Yunxi gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and stared at him closely, watching him approach step by step, and finally stop half a meter away from him.
Ning Shuangchen put one hand behind her back, holding the headband she bought during the day, her eyes fixed on him.
He thought a lot in the past half month.
When you say something, you may be disliked, rejected, or you may never see the person again...
But if you don't say it, you will never have the chance again.
Ye Yunxi looked away uncomfortably, but her heart was pounding in her chest.
The other person's eyes were so fierce, as if they were seeing through him.
He stepped back subconsciously, and at that moment, there was a knock on the door behind him.
Then, the voice of the leader of the Yunlan Sect came from outside the door: "Yun'er? Are you resting?"
After a while, he asked again: "Who are you talking to?"
