The night passed without a word, the air thick with a deathly silence.
Ye Sisi sat blankly on the edge of the bed, looking at the sunlight streaming in through the window, and rubbed her face hard.
The fatigue and gloom on her face vanished without a trace. Pushing open the door, she was once again the carefree junior sister of the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
They had arranged to visit the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion today, and it was only right and proper for them to go.
Early in the morning, a young boy and girl appeared in the courtyard. Both were dressed in light blue robes. The girl was sweet-looking with clear eyes, while the boy was gentle and refined, like a jade tree in full bloom.
I had heard Ouyang Yanyu mention before that the person who saved her was a female disciple of the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion named Liu Mengqing, which should be this little girl.
There aren't many people in the cultivation world who like to meddle in other people's business. If you encounter a seriously injured and dying stranger, it's considered a sign of conscience not to go up and finish him off.
Therefore, Ye Sisi was truly grateful to this innocent and carefree little girl, and naturally also grateful to the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion for being able to teach such a girl.
The group walked towards the city gate, chatting and laughing. Ye Sisi could tell that the boy named Lin Qingzhu really liked Liu Mengqing; his eyes were practically glued to her the whole time.
It's a pity that the other one is probably completely clueless; the young boy will have to wait a long time.
Ye Sisi smiled inwardly, but with a bitter taste. What was the use of seeing these things clearly now? She was completely indifferent to them.
Love is fine, but she's afraid that one day she won't even be able to hold onto family and friends, and will truly become a mindless, emotionless walking corpse.
I wonder how my eldest brother is doing. Will he really come back in ten days? Will he be able to solve my problems? Would it be better if I stopped cultivating? But what will my fifth brother do if my cultivation stagnates?
Ye Sisi suddenly felt a weight on her shoulder. She turned her head and saw Lin Shuanglu slapping her shoulder and winking at her.
Ye Sisi quickly shook off her chaotic thoughts and followed Lin Shuangluo's gaze, just in time to see a little girl named Liu Mengqing chattering excitedly around her second senior sister with bright eyes.
Then she became a little confused, wondering what was so funny about winking and making faces.
Lin Shuangluo transmitted her voice, "Junior Sister, don't be so petty. No one can take Second Senior Sister away from you, so what's there to be unhappy about?"
Ye Sisi was both amused and exasperated. She couldn't quite keep up with how her third senior brother's thought process had changed.
When the group arrived at the ethereal and picturesque Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion, they unexpectedly encountered someone they didn't really want to see.
Liu Mingyue, dressed in a red gauze dress, was sitting in the main hall of Xianyin Sword Pavilion, chatting and laughing with the current sect leader Chen Ruchu. Although Liu Mingyue still looked as charming and beautiful as ever, she was much more serious than yesterday.
Meng Tianyuan led the group in bowing to the well-maintained Sect Master Chen. Although he was now highly skilled, he could not ignore the kindness shown to him simply because of his high level of cultivation.
Sect Leader Chen didn't put on airs. She already knew that Ouyang Yanyu's master had obtained a fortuitous opportunity and stepped into the Integration Realm. However, due to the atmosphere of the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion, she didn't grovel too much. Her words and actions were very proper, neither humble nor arrogant.
How to put it? He's clearly only at the Void Refinement stage, yet he has a profound sense of harmony with humanity. Reaching the Body Integration stage is only a matter of time.
In the end, only Meng Tianyuan, Yaoyan, and the sect leader remained to exchange pleasantries, while the rest of them left the main hall to enjoy the scenery.
Ouyang Yanyu had been recuperating here for nearly a year, so she was naturally very familiar with the place. However, Liu Mengqing and Lin Qingzhu volunteered to act as guides, introducing the various scenic spots and interesting stories of Xianyin Sword Pavilion to the guests.
As for Liu Mingyue, who was accompanied by two maids, it was unclear what she was doing, but she followed behind the group with a smile on her face.
To say she's holding a grudge because Ye Sisi hit her yesterday doesn't seem quite right, but she's unusually quiet today, smiling, which is rather creepy.
Ye Sisi couldn't hold back any longer and turned to Liu Mingyue, saying, "Liu Mingyue, are you ever going to stop? Do you want to fight again?"
Liu Mingyue blinked innocently: "Can't I even take a stroll? This isn't your home, and you just beat me up yesterday. I'm not stupid."
Lin Shuanglu asked curiously, "You guys were fighting yesterday, who is this guy?"
Ye Sisi then gave a brief account of the incident with little interest, saying, "In short, he's a weirdo with eccentric behavior."
Liu Mingyue was displeased and rolled her eyes, saying, "Little sister Ye, how can a peerless beauty like me be a weirdo? You're wasting your beautiful eyes."
Ye Sisi was too lazy to pay attention to her. As long as this person didn't ask for a beating, she didn't want to bother with her.
"Aren't you curious why I came to the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion?"
Six dots passed through the air, but no one paid any attention to her.
Surprisingly, Liu Mingyue wasn't angry. Instead, she continued, "Let me tell you, the Xianyin Sword Pavilion was actually founded by a friend of our Mingyue Palace's ancestor. I'm here on orders to invite the younger generation of the Xianyin Sword Pavilion to our sect for a discussion. Of course, I also have my own selfish reasons for coming here personally. I only have Ouyang Shun in mind when it comes to the entire Xianyin Sword Pavilion."
The two maids thought to themselves, "What orders? You just wanted to come out and have fun."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yanyu turned around and sneered, "You find me pleasing to the eye, huh?"
Liu Mingyue's upturned fox-like eyes lit up, and she ran to Ouyang Yanyu's side with a scurry: "Ouyang, that smile you just gave, smile again, oh my god, my heart is still pounding."
Ye Sisi's lips twitched; she simply couldn't bear to look at her.
Ye Shubai and Lin Shuangluo exchanged glances, both feeling that Liu Mingyue had some mental issues.
Liu Mengqing blinked and asked seriously, "If your heart doesn't beat, you're already dead."
Lin Qingzhu tapped her forehead with her folding fan, feeling that even her junior sister was unbearable to look at.
Seeing Liu Mingyue, who looked like a fairy, looking over, he quickly pulled his silly junior sister behind him, afraid that this eccentric fairy would suddenly beat him up.
Ye Sisi sat alone on the back of the crane kept by the Immortal Sound Sword Pavilion, resting her chin on her hand and watching the clouds drift by. Was the scenery beautiful? Yes, it was, but unfortunately, she was no longer in the mood to appreciate it.
The traceless spirit floated out and sat beside Ye Sisi. It didn't say anything for a while, just sat there quietly with deep eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
After a long silence, Ye Sisi finally spoke up, "Henhen, what if one day I stop being myself?"
Wuhen paused for a moment and said seriously, "It's not like you, but it's not you either."
Ye Sisi was taken aback. These words were rather convoluted, but her mood became even heavier. Yes, she might not be herself anymore. What should she do then?
What if she had the ability to save her fifth senior brother, but didn't save him because she didn't care anymore? It wasn't that she was overthinking things, but rather that she felt a chill in her heart at that unfamiliar version of herself.
Thinking of this, Ye Sisi inexplicably became angry and said to Wuhen sitting next to her, "If you can't speak properly, then don't speak. You're making me so angry. I don't want to see you right now."
Without a trace...
