After Chu Lingxiao finished speaking, his ears turned red as if they were about to bleed. He raised his head to see Gu Qingze's reaction.
Unexpectedly, Gu Qingze seemed to have another interesting idea and looked at him expectantly.
"Ling Xiao, can you try speaking in four tones?"
Gu Qingze looked at Chu Lingxiao with a smile in his eyes, but Chu Lingxiao felt his face was hot and his head was completely unable to think.
"What do the four tones mean?"
Chu Lingxiao was puzzled for a moment and asked doubtfully.
"Just like Senior Brother Qing→ze~"
"Gu Qingze! Why...you weren't like this before...did you learn bad habits outside?"
Listening to Gu Qingze's demonstration, Chu Lingxiao immediately understood what he meant by the four tones, and pushed him away shyly.
Gu Qingze didn't expect Chu Lingxiao to react so strongly, and a hint of apology appeared on his face.
"I'm sorry, if Ling Xiao doesn't like it, I won't do this again."
His voice became low and depressed, like a wounded puppy. Chu Lingxiao saw his appearance and suddenly felt distressed.
"You... Actually, there's nothing I don't like..."
Chu Lingxiao looked at him and quickly explained that he couldn't possibly tell Qingze that it was because he was too shy...
"That means I like you!"
Gu Qingze's eyes became bright again, and there was even a hint of cunning in his tone.
Seeing the huge difference between his before and after behavior, Chu Lingxiao realized that he was just pretending to be pitiful and that he had been deceived. So he was angry and didn't want to pay attention to him.
Gu Qingze was completely panicked now. It would not be a good thing if the joke went too far. Just when he wanted to coax Ling Xiao, he heard a familiar voice.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Gu, for coming out of seclusion."
In the distance, Lu Xingchen was flying towards us on his sword.
"He's already in the early stage of the Golden Core stage! How amazing! It's only been two years."
Lu Xingchen patted Gu Qingze's shoulder with relief.
"Hello, Senior Brother Lu."
Chu Lingxiao also bowed to Lu Xingchen with a smile on his face.
"Oh, by the way, Junior Brother Chu said you two are from the same school. Have you communicated with each other?"
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao looked at each other, smiled and nodded.
"To reply to Senior Brother, we have discussed everything."
Lu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's fine as long as you all get along well. I was worried that you wouldn't get along well."
"Junior Brother Gu, let me tell you, Junior Brother Chu is the first disciple that Master personally accepted. His talent in swordsmanship must be quite good."
"Junior Brother Chu has already told me about these things. I also think that Junior Brother Chu is very talented and will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Gu Qingze responded to Lu Xingchen's words with a smile, and while speaking, he deliberately bumped into Chu Lingxiao's shoulder.
"Well, you guys continue chatting. I have something else to take care of, so I'll leave first."
"Brother Lu, are there many things in the sect that need your attention?"
Gu Qingze looked at Lu Xingchen who was about to fly away on his sword again and asked curiously.
"That's because I've accepted several missions in the Mission Hall, and the deadlines are almost up. Qingyun Sect doesn't have any strict requirements for disciples accepting missions, so they can accept them or not. But I'm about to make a breakthrough in my cultivation, so in order to earn more spirit stones, I can only... leave it alone for now, it's almost too late."
Lu Xingchen flew away on his sword as he spoke. Watching him leave, Gu Qingze sighed. Senior Brother Lu had helped him a lot, and he would see if he could help Senior Brother Lu financially later.
