Chapter 84 Even if he wants to enter, he can only be a small
Are you ordering him around?
Helan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect her to say such a thing, and no one had ever spoken to him like that. He thought he would feel disgusted when he heard such words that implied an order, but in fact, it seemed that he was not so bad.
But it's just not disgusting.
His expression was indifferent: "No need for a disciple's order, I'll take you in."
Xie Yanyu pursed his lips and said, "But I've only just joined the sect. If I don't follow the rules after just a few days, it won't sound good if the news gets out."
Helan Wei didn't respond, but looked at her quietly.
Xie Yanyu was also looking at him at this time, and their eyes met, but neither of them spoke.
The room was silent.
For a moment, there was a sense of stalemate.
At this moment, Shen Lang's voice broke the silence: "Let me go."
Xie Yanyu glanced at him sideways.
Chen Lang straightened his clothes and said gently, "Miss, if you need anything, just tell me. Where did you put your disciple's token? In the bedroom?"
He seemed very understanding this way.
Helan Wei suddenly felt irritated, mixed with an indescribable panic.
But before he could react, the next second, he heard Xie Yanyu say to the guard, "No, I want my senior brother to help me get it."
Helan Wei's heart moved.
He looked at the attendant and saw that he had a lost expression. Suddenly, the irritation in his heart dissipated.
So what if he is considerate, so what if he is willing to be a dog, she just doesn't need him and she won't give him any extra attention just because he is obedient.
He pursed his lips and said, "Why? You have a ready-made guard and you insist I go get one for you?"
Xie Yanyu: "His cultivation level is not as high as yours."
Chen Lang's true cultivation level was actually higher than Helan Wei's, but by disguising himself as a guard, he had similarly concealed his level. Therefore, to Xie Yanyu, he appeared to be only at the Golden Core stage. She continued, "Aren't only cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above able to fly a sword? I live far away, so it would be faster for Senior Brother to fly there."
oh.
Because he was more useful than the guard, he was ordered to do things instead of the guard.
Helan Wei listened to her words word by word, looking at her with dark eyes. Xie Yanyu still didn't hear his response, and she was not surprised by this, because she knew that she was stepping on his bottom line, competing with him, playing games with him, trying to force him to give in more.
She suddenly raised her eyes to look at him again,
Her eyes met his black pupils, but at that moment, she heard him say lightly: "Hmm. Where is the thing?"
Xie Yanyu was silent for a moment.
After a while, she smiled gently and said, "On the table in my bedroom."
*
at the same time.
Welcoming Peak, Guest Garden to the west.
Li Xun was sitting in the study, with a booklet on the table in front of him. The pages of the booklet were spread out, and from left to right, they were filled with words.
This is the engagement gift list.
The subordinate stood nearby, secretly glancing at the gift list. Before he finished reading it, he saw Li Xun picking up a pen and writing down several items on it. They were all relatively precious spiritual treasures and magical instruments. Each item was worth a fortune if taken individually.
"Master," the servant couldn't help but say, "You really care about Miss Qingqing."
Li Xun didn't even raise his eyes: "Really? Why would you care?"
The subordinate said, "The marriage proposal hasn't even been delivered to the Xie family yet, and you're already writing the gift list. Isn't that thoughtful? Moreover, there are so many things on the gift list, all of which are precious and hard to find, and you're going to give them all to Miss Qingqing. Isn't that thoughtful?"
After these words fell,
Li Xun glanced at him with a half-smile.
This sight made his subordinate's body go numb. He was about to say something, but swallowed it back in an instant. He asked carefully, "Did I say something wrong?"
Li Xun remained silent and did not answer.
He picked up the pen and continued writing on the gift list.
His subordinates saw that the items he wrote were becoming increasingly valuable and rare, and they were perplexed. They were afraid that if they gave them away like this, others would be filled with jealousy. Even if the Heavenly Sword Sect was very wealthy, it would not be easy to acquire all these items in one go. If this wasn't caring, then what was caring?
After a while.
Li Xun finally finished writing.
He put down his pen, leaned back in his chair lazily, crossed his legs, and ordered his subordinate, "Send the gift list to Qingqing."
Subordinate: “This…”
Unable to grasp his thoughts, his subordinate cautiously reminded him, "But according to custom, the betrothal gift list must be discussed with the other party's family before it can be reviewed by the woman... If you want Miss Qingqing to review it and see if she likes it, why not wait until the Xie family..."
This is not finished yet,
Li Xun suddenly raised his leg and kicked him, interrupting violently: "Who cares whether she likes it or not? I just want what I like."
The subordinate didn't react: "Huh?"
Li Xun said slowly, "She asked for the marriage, she's going to marry me, so she has to buy things for me. Hurry up and give her the gift list. Tell her I can buy it on credit. She doesn't have to buy these things for me before the engagement. She can buy them for me in installments after the wedding."
As soon as the words fell,
The men were stunned and dumbfounded, all their words were stuck in their throats, and for a long time, they couldn't squeeze out a single word.
Otherwise, why is a mad dog a mad dog? You can never guess what a mad dog is thinking. It can do all kinds of crazy things. This, this...
How come he's just starting to eat gigolo food?!

Helan Wei used his sword to quickly get the disciple token for Xie Yanyu.
Xie Yanyu got the item, and the story progress with Helan Wei also advanced from 45% to 47%——
In the original plot, Helan Wei also taught Xie Yanyu how to practice.
It was just that Xie Yanyu was being attentive and pestering Helan Wei to teach her a few tricks, so there were many instances where she took the initiative to run errands for Helan Wei.
Although the person running errands has now become Helan Wei, the plot points of running errands have been aligned, so the plot progress has also been advanced.
There are many similar plots.
Xie Yanyu knew that some sufferings did not need to be endured by her, and it would be the same for anyone to endure.
Therefore, she had this idea in mind when testing Helan Wei's bottom line just now. No matter how the plot progresses, why should she do some things and not Helan Wei?
System: [This is a compliance test.]
Sometimes the system would say some strange phrases and words. Xie Yanyu had never heard of such words before, but as long as they were not particularly obscure, she could almost understand them and could comprehend their meaning.
At this time the system says,
Xie Yanyu could roughly understand the meaning of this phrase, so he didn't ask any more questions.
She sent the servant away and went to the Weapon Refining Pavilion with Helan Wei.
*
The Equipment Refining Pavilion is located in the Shangqing Immortal Palace, at the foot of the mountain where the Equipment Refining Sect is located. It is a five- or six-story building with a very large area. It is specially used to sell magical instruments refined by the people of the Equipment Refining Sect. The first, second and third floors are magical instruments refined by the disciples of the Equipment Refining Sect, and most of the magical instruments sold on the fourth and fifth floors are made by the equipment refining elders in the sect.
The weapon-refining elders of Shangqing Immortal Palace are very powerful and are all the best in the world. The magic weapons they refine are in high demand. Even if they take out one at random, people will scramble for it.
However, these magical instruments are rarely circulated and are rarely sold to outsiders. Most of them are kept in the weapon refining pavilion and sold to people in Shangqing Immortal Palace. These magical instruments are of various types. In addition to swords, there are also bows and arrows, musical instruments, and even hairpins for clothing.
Xie Yanyu slowly went up to the top floor from the first floor, and she looked at each floor one by one.
Finally, she arrived at the sword-selling area on the top floor. She wanted to choose a better sword for herself.
But swords also have different types,
There are long swords, short swords, soft swords, and all kinds of them.
Xie Yanyu looked at them one by one.
While looking at the sword, he also read the introduction book next to the sword.
She clearly didn't understand swords, but she didn't turn around to ask him.
Helan Wei followed her slowly, his eyes fixed on her, his expression indifferent, no one knowing what he was thinking. She didn't say anything, and neither did he. The two were very close to each other, but because no one spoke, they looked like strangers.
After a while,
Xie Yanyu picked a sword.
Although she did not know anything about swords, she listened carefully when Helan Wei was teaching. She knew that the best way to practice Wuxiang Sword was with a seven-foot-long heavy black iron sword, so she followed the introduction book next to the sword and found a sword that met the standards.
She picked up the sword and was about to lift it up to test it.
However, at this moment, Helan Wei's voice suddenly appeared: "The posture is wrong."
Xie Yanyu looked down at his hands.
She was clearly holding the sword in the same position that Helan Wei had taught her, holding the sword in her right hand, with her palm resting on the hilt and her thumb pressing on the first joint of her middle finger.
She couldn't see what was wrong, so she humbly asked, "What's wrong?"
Just a small mistake.
According to the normal sword-holding posture, although the base of the palm should be against the hilt, the palm cannot be placed on the hilt. Instead, it should be slightly arched and hollow. If not, the wrist will be tense and not flexible enough, which will limit the range of movement and make it easy to get injured.
Such a small mistake can be explained clearly with just one sentence, or even just a few words.
Helan Wei looked at her, then moved his lips after a while: "Come here."
Xie Yanyu: "Hmm?"
Helan Wei remained calm and said, "If you could explain it clearly, you wouldn't make any mistakes now. I'll help you straighten your hands."
This is indeed the case.
Upon hearing this, Xie Yanyu walked towards him with his sword in hand.
Just as she reached him, she felt a surge of spiritual energy in the communication talisman on her body. Someone had sent her a message. It wasn't a text message, but a video call, the kind where you could see and hear each other's real-time images and voices. She didn't know who it was.
So Xie Yanyu glanced at Helan Wei.
At this time,
Helan Wei stood behind her, one hand lightly pressing her shoulder, and the other hand around her arm, just about to hold her hand and help her adjust her sword-holding posture.
It looked like he was hugging her from behind. He was much taller than her, so in this posture, his figure almost enveloped her, giving her an indescribable sense of oppression. The faint orchid fragrance on his body also overwhelmed her, but his body did not touch her, his expression was indifferent, and his posture was a little nonchalant, so it was easy to tell that this was not a hug, but this genius was instructing someone to hold the sword from a high position.
He lowered his eyelashes and saw her turn around, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
As he spoke, his hand had already touched the hand holding the sword, and felt the warmth of the back of her hand.
He was about to hold her handbag, but the next second, Xie Yanyu moved her hand. Instead of letting him hold her hand, she put the sword into his palm.
Then Helan Wei heard her say, "Wait a moment."
*
Xie Yanyu took out the communication talisman and found that it was Li Xun who was sending her a video request. She wondered what important matter he wanted to say.
She answered the video call: "What's wrong?"
Li Xun's voice came over: "I'll let my men give it to you—"
When he said this, he suddenly noticed the scene on Xie Yanyu's side.
She was not at her residence, and it seemed that there was someone behind her, but the image he could see through the communication talisman was very limited. He could only see the man's robe, which was light pink. However, the man was very tall and had a broad chest. It was obviously a man. He seemed to be very close to her, and it seemed like they were hugging each other.
Li Xun raised his eyes slightly.
Looking towards the edge of the picture, he could see some magical instruments for sale. He could enter and exit the Instrument Refining Pavilion of Shangqing Immortal Palace, so he recognized her immediately. "Are you outside?"
Xie Yanyu: "Yeah."
Li Xun said grimly, "Who's behind you?"
After these words fell,
Xie Yanyu was silent for a moment.
From Helan Wei's perspective, he could see that Li Xun had sharp eyebrows and eyes, and looked a little grumpy and unhappy.
He did not move, but looked down at Xie Yanyu, wanting to hear her answer.
Then, Xie Yanyu said, "Why do you care so much? So what do you want from me?"
As soon as these words fell,
Helan Wei curled his lips inexplicably.
Li Xun also laughed at this: "You are so close to another man, and I can't do anything about it? Why can't I do anything about it? I married you, it's legitimate and legal. Even if he wants to come in, he can only be my concubine and have to kneel down and offer me tea. I can sell him off if I want to. Just based on this, you say I can do anything about it? Why can't I do anything about it? Right? Hmm? Speak!"
Xie Yanyu: "..."
Xie Yanyu was annoyed by his noise and felt so helpless that he actually laughed: "Can you please keep your voice down?"
She said: "People nearby heard it and were all looking at me."
Li Xun crossed his legs and said sarcastically, "You dare to do it but not let others see it? Speak, I'm asking you a question, who is behind you?"
"No, what did I do?" Xie Yanyu was overwhelmed. She knew that according to Li Xun's personality, if she didn't show Li Xun who was behind her, he would really not give up. She took a step forward and turned the communication talisman so that Li Xun could see Helan Wei behind him. Then she said, "It's my senior brother. Is that okay? Can you tell me what you want from me?"
"Aren't they familiar with each other? And yet they're together? And yet they're so close to each other?"
“…”
"Speak! I'm asking you a question."
Xie Yanyu took a deep breath and said, "Master asked him to teach me swordsmanship, so we came to the Weapon Refining Pavilion to pick out a sword. He said that my sword grip was wrong, so he wanted to help me adjust it."
It is quite normal for fellow disciples to have such a situation.
Li Xun stared at her through the communication talisman with a gloomy face. He felt uncomfortable, but he also knew that asking any more would be too much. He knew Qingqing's character too well. She would push her bottom line. As long as she didn't cross the line, she would talk to her in a good way no matter how impatient she was. Once she crossed the line, she would turn hostile. So he curled his lips and said, "Okay, I'll reluctantly trust you again."
Li Xun spoke rudely, like a husband who came to catch his wife cheating. They were clearly not married yet, not even the engagement process had been completed. Strictly speaking, they were not even an engaged couple for the time being. Why did he speak in such a tone?
Helan Wei's fingers gripped the sword so hard that they turned white. He stared at Xie Yanyu intently, his pupils dark and gloomy.
He pursed his lips and was about to speak.
However, at this time,
Suddenly a voice came from Li Xun's side.
It was Li Xun's subordinate who pushed the door open and came in, talking to Li Xun: "Master, I just went to deliver the gift list, but I didn't see Miss Qingqing. I only saw Master Helan coming out of her room. I asked him a question, and Master Helan said Miss Qingqing was not there!"
As soon as these words fell, the air was silent for a moment.
Xie Yanyu was stunned.
Then I saw Li Xun's face, which had just brightened up, suddenly darken.
At this moment, Helan Wei stood nearby, his eyelashes trembling. With a flick of his finger, he snatched Xie Yanyu's disciple token from her waist and said to the communication talisman, "I'm in my junior sister's room. She didn't bring her disciple token, so I went to get it for her."
Through the communication talisman,
He looked directly into Li Xun's eyes, smiled slowly, and spoke clearly, "I'm not familiar with her. Sword Master, please don't misunderstand me."
