Encounter (6)
Damn Xu Xing, next time I get the chance, I will make you live a life worse than death!
Song Shiyu's teeth were about to break, so he simply lifted up his outer robe and turned to look at the three people.
"Oh, we meet again. Immortal, you can't wait and come to find me?" Song Shiyu cast a coquettish look at Xie Feng and said in a soft voice.
But I cursed him countless times in my heart.
Under the bright moonlight, the woman was wearing a light gauze, and the red color made her look even more charming. Li Zhaoyue stared at her with his eyes wide open.
Xie Feng recognized her as the banshee he had captured that day. He sneered and immediately drew the Meteor Sword from his waist.
"Are you two in the same group?" He was referring to Xu Xing.
Song Shiyu looked at the faint smile on Xu Xing's face, chuckled, and said vaguely, "Guess."
After saying that, she stretched out her slender hand and gently tapped Xie Feng.
Li Zhaoyue found it hard to accept that the woman who had been so weak just now had suddenly become so charming.
Song Shiyu smiled softly at her, and a disciple's robe flew towards her, blocking her vision, followed by the voices of Xu Xing and Xie Feng.
"What are you doing?" They both spoke almost at the same time.
Song Shiyu covered Li Zhaoyue tightly with her outer robe, and the bell hanging on her wrist rang softly with her movements.
"I'm not doing anything, I just want to get out of here."
"Don't even think about it." Xie Feng's voice was so cold that it was about to break.
"Don't go too far." Xu Xing sent a message to her.
It sounded like both of them were so nervous and concerned about Ah Yue. Song Shiyu lowered his eyes, stroking his robe thoughtfully, and finally smiled while covering his mouth: "Then don't blame me for being ruthless."
In just a moment, the silver thread hidden in her wrist suddenly moved out at an incredible speed. Xie Feng was prepared and took out the Meteor Sword to block it, while Xu Xing slightly moved aside and avoided the attack.
Unexpectedly, Song Shiyu's purpose was not to attack the two of them, but to take advantage of the gap when they dodged and suddenly escape in the opposite direction.
Senior Sister Xu Xing, apart from other things, is the fastest in running away.
"You can't catch up." Xu Xing stopped Xie Feng who wanted to continue chasing and said in a calm voice.
Xie Feng put the Meteor Sword back into its sheath and was silent for a while. When he raised his head again, the pride in his eyes had disappeared without a trace.
"I'm going to save Ayue, are you coming?"
Xu Xing dodged the banshee's attack easily just now. No matter where she came from, as long as he could help her rescue A Yue, it would be fine.
Xu Xing was surprised that he could say such a thing, and his eyes curved: "Of course."
Xie Feng secretly sent a message to Zhu Ming, explained the situation, and then followed the traces left by the banshee and headed in the opposite direction.
What Xu Xing said just now was right. This banshee was cunning and used a low-level trick to deceive people. If we follow the direction she escaped, we will not be able to catch her no matter how hard we try.
Xu Xing stared at the anxious figure in front of him and curled the corners of his lips.

Song Shiyu was used to a carefree life and didn't have a permanent residence, so he just found an inn at the foot of the mountain and left Li Zhaoyue there.
Li Zhaoyue quietly poked his head out from his Taoist robe and met Song Shiyu's bright and beautiful eyes.
She seemed to be burned by something and shrank back.
"Why are you hiding?" Song Shiyu said, finding it funny.
Li Zhaoyue poked her head out again with a red face and whispered, "Beautiful sister, please let me go back. If you catch me, Afeng will definitely tell Master. Master is very strict and will not show mercy to you."
She was arrested herself, but she was still worried about the safety of the person who arrested her.
Song Shiyu pretended to be fierce and bared her teeth at Li Zhaoyue, but the latter was not afraid at all and looked at her with a smile.
Li Zhaoyue seemed to be particularly friendly to her, which made Song Shiyu feel inexplicably guilty.
She shook her head and began to think about the next steps.
The little girl was right. This grab did cause her a lot of trouble, but it also proved that this guy could help her get out.
Song Shiyu rolled her eyes, put on her weak look again, and squeezed out two tears.
"Actually, I had no choice," she cried.
Li Zhaoyue's eyes widened, he quickly took off his outer robe, ran to her side and squatted down.
"Don't cry, beautiful sister. I can ask Master for help..."
Before she could finish her words, Song Shiyu's sobs suddenly intensified. "Although I'm a demon, I've never harmed anyone. But your senior brother arrested me without any reason. Tell me, am I being wronged? I thought I'd be released after just a few days in jail, but who would have thought this guy would refuse to let me go?"
"I really had no choice but to tie you up."
While pretending to cry, she observed Li Zhaoyue's expression. Seeing her expression of pity, a sense of pride suddenly rose in her heart.
This little girl is so easy to fool. She softened her heart just by shedding a few tears. No wonder Xu Xing wanted to attack her.
After hearing her words, Li Zhaoyue shook his clothes covered with gold thread and said anxiously, "You didn't tie me up. I'm fine. I will tell Master."
This is just a metaphor.
The corners of Song Shiyu's mouth twitched, and then he was blinded by the golden light on the little girl.
Before, I only saw her wearing goose yellow clothes and didn’t notice the decorations on her body. Now when I look closer, I can see that underneath the goose yellow color, there are a lot of gold jewelry.
This is too rich.
Seeing that Song Shiyu was staring at the pure gold bell around his waist with a strange look, Li Zhaoyue simply took off the bell from his waist and handed it to Song Shiyu.
"What do you mean?" Song Shiyu asked knowingly.
"Aren't you wearing a bell? It seems that you must like bells very much. I don't need it, so I'll give it to you." Li Zhaoyue stuffed the heavy golden bell in his hand into Song Shiyu's hand and said crisply.
Damn, she had never seen so much money.
Song Shiyu's hands were shaking. He forced himself to swallow the laughter that was about to burst out of his throat, and accepted the golden bell with tears in his eyes.
To be honest, as a pure poor person, the golden bells on her body were fake and could be seen at a glance. But Li Zhaoyue didn't know if he didn't see it or was just stupid, but he actually gave her gold.
He is really a boy who gives away money.
But this is not the end. Li Zhaoyue seemed to remember something and took out a piece of gold from her small bag and stuffed it into Song Shiyu's hand.
At this time, Song Shiyu could no longer cry a single tear.
Not laughing was her last act of stubbornness.
"Sis, you've been locked up for so many days, you must want to go home right away. This gold is my gift for your travel expenses. Please don't argue with Afeng. He has been serious since he was a child and is particularly persistent in some things."
Li Zhaoyue paused, his eyes brightening. "But he is my best friend, so consider it as my apology to him on your behalf."
Song Shiyu's mind was full of yearning for wealth. He no longer cared about his miserable experience of being imprisoned for so many days. He accepted the gold with a smile on his face, fantasizing about a glorious life in the future.
She didn't speak, and neither did Li Zhaoyue. The room fell silent for a moment. Faint candlelight emanated from the candlestick on the table. After the joy, Song Shiyu felt a complicated feeling inside.
For the first time, she felt like she was nothing.
Li Zhaoyue gave him so much gold, but he was still thinking about how to use her to threaten those disciples.
What a beast.
Li Zhaoyue rarely came out. He was lying on the windowsill with an excited look on his face, looking at the dark street with great interest.
Song Shiyu was struggling fiercely with his inner self.
After a moment, Song Shiyu looked solemn. He pulled Li Zhaoyue to sit at the table, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Li Zhaoyue blinked her eyes, her gaze was clear and innocent.
Her nonexistent conscience suddenly pricked.
"Um..." She said awkwardly, "I apologize for tying you up before. Now I won't take you away. Just stay here obediently. Your senior brother will come to rescue you soon."
Li Zhaoyue's eyes were confused for a moment, and then he suddenly realized, "So you captured me to use me to threaten my senior brother?"
What else?
Song Shiyu almost couldn't hold it in.
When Li Zhaoyue saw her expression, he already understood most of what she meant, but he still said goodbye to her with a heartless smile.
Song Shiyu didn't know what he felt, he just felt very unhappy.
The window was open, and the cool breeze blew the red gauze on her body. Before leaving, she turned her head and looked at Li Zhaoyue for the last time.
The originally charming eyes were slightly open, containing warning and coldness.
"Stay away from Xu Xing."
Leaving behind this vague statement, Song Shiyu left quickly.
Li Zhaoyue looked at the figure that quickly disappeared in the distance, and lowered her head very gently. The hazy moonlight covered her head, casting a veil over her picturesque face.
Originally thought that the witch would continue to hold Li Zhaoyue hostage and do something, but unexpectedly, just a moment later, Xie Feng found Li Zhaoyue in an inn not far from Yiziyuan.
At that time, she was lying on the table, sleeping soundly.
When Xu Xing, who was a step slower than him, came in, he just saw Xie Feng carrying Li Zhaoyue on his back.
He thought for a moment, then quickly stepped forward and asked with pretended enthusiasm, "Is Ah Yue okay?"
Xu Xing had put in a lot of effort in tracking down the banshee just now, and as a result, Xie Feng's attitude towards him had softened a little.
"It's okay, I just fell asleep." Xie Feng said softly.
"Thank you so much for today."
Hearing this, Xu Xing smiled and shook his head: "It's just a piece of cake, you're welcome."
"If nothing else, I'll take A Yue back first. She can't sleep in a bed outside." Xie Feng looked at the girl behind him with heartache and said softly.
It seems that in front of Li Zhaoyue, Xie Feng always puts away his pride and sharpness and becomes gentle and amiable.
Xu Xing felt surprised by his discovery, but he was then filled with deeper curiosity.
"You go first." Xu Xing made way for them and said softly.
Xie Feng nodded and left quickly.

When Li Zhaoyue woke up again, it was already noon. She hurriedly put on her clothes and shoes and quietly slipped into the classroom. As soon as she sat down, a group of students immediately surrounded her.
"Senior Sister, I heard that you were held hostage by a female demon yesterday. Are you okay?" The person who spoke was a male disciple with an unfamiliar face. Li Zhaoyue thought for a long time but couldn't remember who he was, but still nodded.
"I'm fine."
"But this witch is really too much. She actually dared to do such a thing in Yiziyuan. Isn't she afraid that Elder Zhu will chop her down with a sword?"
"Yes, yes, Senior Sister is Elder Zhu's most beloved disciple."
The noises of those people were really loud, and Li Zhaoyue hadn't slept well, so he could only lie listlessly on the table and respond to them randomly.
Time passed quickly and the afternoon class was over in a flash. Li Zhaoyue stretched sleepily and was about to pack up and go back when someone suddenly sat down next to him.
"Senior Sister."
The shout woke her up. Li Zhaoyue looked carefully and found that it was a handsome man.
She thought about it for a long time but couldn't remember where she had seen him before. She asked hesitantly, "Who are you?"
