Seeing that Bai Ziyun ignored her, Qin Ruxue simply turned around and looked at Xiao Ning.
"Master Xiao, why haven't I seen you participate in the competition?"
"Ning'er has just returned to the sect. It would be unfair for him to rashly participate in the competition."
Bai Ziyun spoke to Qin Ruxue without any emotion. But Qin Ruxue didn't care and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"Wow! I didn't expect Master Bai Feng to care about his apprentice! Why haven't I seen you care so much before?"
Bai Ziyun showed anger at this time and retorted:
"Qin Ruxue, it's not your turn to tell me what to do with Ning'er, right?"
Xiao Ning was overwhelmed when he saw the two of them were on edge and about to fight at any time. He immediately grabbed Bai Ziyun's hand and said softly.
"Master, are you hungry? The food I prepared is getting cold. Why don't we eat first? I specially made your favorite pork and green pepper today."
Bai Ziyun saw her obedient disciple leaning towards her, and the joy in her heart was like a spring breeze. She touched Xiao Ning's face affectionately, then pulled Xiao Ning and walked inside, saying as she walked, "What delicious food did you make today?" Qin Ruxue was left standing there alone. Then Xiao Ning gave Qin Ruxue a look, indicating that she should wait for me.
After entering the house, Xiao Ning served Bai Ziyun a bowl of rice and put some of her favorite dishes in the bowl, "Master, please try my cooking skills and see if they have improved."
Bai Ziyun tasted it and nodded, "Well, not bad." Xiao Ning smiled happily after receiving Bai Ziyun's praise. After finishing the meal, Xiao Ning pretended to go to the bathroom, and after leaving the door, he walked towards Qin Ruxue.
When he saw Qin Ruxue, she was sitting and talking with several disciples. Xiao Ning touched his nose and walked over.
"Uncle Qin, sisters! I brought some food,"
When they saw Xiao Ning, they responded happily. Xiao Ning produced bowls and chopsticks for them, and they ate with relish.
"Junior Brother Xiao, I haven't eaten the food you cooked for a long time. Senior Sister Yun and the others are so lucky! They can eat it every day!"
"That's right! How great it would be if Junior Brother Xiao could become our junior brother!"
Xiao Ning smiled shyly.
At this time, Chu Yanran looked at the young man, her face flushed, like a ripe apple. She was the girl who helped Xiao Ning in the disciple-taking ceremony. However, this was the first time they met formally, and she was too shy to speak.
Qin Ruxue saw her apprentice's embarrassing situation, she looked at Xiao Ning:
"This is my new disciple, Chu Yanran."
Xiao Ning looked at her and recognized him. He smiled happily and said
"Senior Sister Yanran, my name is Xiao Ning! I'm at Wutong Peak, please take care of me in the future."
"Hello, Junior Brother Xiao." Chu Yanran lowered her head and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito. Xiao Ning heard it but didn't pay much attention to it. After they finished their meal, Xiao Ning was about to leave, but Qin Ruxue said she would see him off. When they reached a wall, she pushed Xiao Ning against it.
"Ning'er! You and your master are pretty close. Have you forgotten what she did to you before?"
Xiao Ning was somewhat helpless, and sighed and said:
"Uncle Master, I've actually let it go. They weren't the masterminds, so there's no need to make such a fuss, right?"
"That won't do. I've been fighting against Bai Ziyun every day to vent my anger for you, but I didn't expect you to be the first to forgive them!" Qin Ruxue said indignantly. After she finished speaking, she noticed the teeth marks and strawberry marks on Xiao Ning's neck. She was immediately frightened, and her eyes opened like copper bells, as if she could see through Xiao Ning's neck.
"This is? Bai Ziyun did it?"
Xiao Ning was a little shy, so he covered it with his collar. He started to defend himself:
"That's just an injury, not a..."
Qin Ruxue was not so easily fooled, she naturally knew what this thing was.
"Humph, I didn't expect Bai Ziyun to be so shameless that he didn't even let his own apprentice go and left this kind of thing on you!"
"No...no, this isn't it!"
Xiao Ning continued to defend himself, but Qin Ruxue didn't listen at all.
Suddenly, Qin Ruxue's mind got hot. She thought: Bai Ziyun can do such outrageous things to Xiao Ning, why can't I, Qin Ruxue! So, she also bit Xiao Ning's neck.
Xiao Ning felt pain and made a sound.
"Uncle Master, please don't~ it hurts"
Xiao Ning's voice was like that of a wounded little lamb, making people feel distressed.
After a while, a red strawberry was left on his neck. Qin Ruxue was a little overwhelmed at this time, her face flushed, it was her first time to do such a thing, and then she looked at the blushing boy, his handsome face, she was obsessed with it, and she kissed his lips unconsciously.
Qin Ruxue's kiss completely stunned Xiao Ning. He felt the softness of Qin Ruxue's lips, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.
Suddenly, Xiao Ning came to his senses and pushed Qin Ruxue away. "Uncle, what are you doing..." His face flushed red, his eyes full of surprise and confusion.
Qin Ruxue also realized that her behavior was a bit excessive, and her face turned red instantly. "I didn't...mean it, Ning'er, I." She explained stutteringly, her voice getting smaller and smaller.
Xiao Ning was a little angry. He left without looking back, leaving Qin Ruxue standing there alone...
Qin Ruxue stood there blankly, watching Xiao Ning leave. Her heart was pounding, and her hand unconsciously touched the lips she had just kissed.
"What's wrong with me..." Qin Ruxue murmured to herself, feeling extremely ashamed of her impulsiveness just now.
On the other side, Xiao Ning hurried back to Bai Ziyun's residence. Bai Ziyun saw that he looked unusual and asked what happened. Xiao Ning hesitated for a moment, but decided to conceal Qin Ruxue's actions and just said that he encountered a little trouble.
Bai Ziyun walked up and hugged him gently. She felt a familiar smell on Xiao Ning, but she didn't think much about it.
Xiao Ning did not refuse, and gently hugged her with his arms, rubbing his face against her hair affectionately.
In the afternoon, they came to the square again. The afternoon match was to decide the top eight for tomorrow. Soon the square was crowded with people again. Bai Ziyun told Yun Yao and the others to pay attention to safety, as the next matches would only become more and more difficult. Xiao Ning also said encouraging words, asking them to do it boldly!
The game started and Yun Yao came on the field. His opponent was also in the early stage of Yuanying. Xiao Ning watched the fight on the stage nervously from the audience. He clenched his hands and silently cheered for his senior sister. Suddenly, he noticed a pair of eyes staring at him. Turning around, it was Qin Ruxue. Her eyes revealed a complex emotion, and Xiao Ning quickly turned his head away.
At this time, Yun Yao's opponent launched a fierce attack, Yun Yao dodged sideways and then counterattacked. However, the opponent was strong and Yun Yao gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Senior sister!" Xiao Ning couldn't help but shout. Bai Ziyun looked at him and asked softly, "What's wrong? Are you worried about your senior sister?" Xiao Ning nodded, his eyes never leaving Yun Yao.
Yun Yao seemed to have heard Xiao Ning's call. She steadied herself, adjusted her strategy, and gradually turned the tide of the battle. In the end, she successfully defeated her opponent and won the game.
Xiao Ning breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. Bai Ziyun touched his head and expressed his appreciation. Qin Ruxue looked at this scene with mixed feelings...
