Chapter 31 Children make choices, but adults want both
"I'm going in."
After a hundred breaths, the jade gourd controlled by Luan Yu broke through the clouds and swooped down towards the turtle's back that looked like a floating island below. The barrier deployed outside the turtle's body seemed to be non-existent and did not cause any obstruction to the jade gourd and the flying boat.
Xiao Jingsheng skillfully grasped the other person's slender waist to stabilize his body, but his eyes remained on the jade plate between the other person's collarbone.
Because he was a whole head taller than the other person, he only needed to lower his head to see the jade plate hanging in the ravine clearly. The vague white space became its harbor, spreading into the shadow area that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.
The occasional fluctuations coming from the jade token seemed to be the key to successfully passing through the barrier.
But as I get older, I often can’t help but stare at one place for a long time.
This sign of maturity seemed to have been deeply imprinted on Xiao Jingsheng's body, and would last until his death.
Seeing that they would stop soon, Luan Yu changed his previous unruly look, and looked deeply at the houses and pavilions on the turtle's back that looked like a city on earth, and warned: "This area is jointly established by the ten sects of Xuanmen with the back of the Xuanming Dragon Turtle as the base. It is the main base of the ten sects. Its location is fixed, which solves the supply problem of other battlefields. And because the elites of the ten sects of Xuanmen are all stationed here, no matter how rampant the demons are, they dare not lead the crowd to attack."
"However, you must not think that this base is safe because of this. The real crisis is often hidden in invisible places. Even the disciples of our sect should be careful and not trust other people's information easily."
"Disciple understands."
The seven people on the jade gourd bowed in response.
Li Cangxuan saw the solemn atmosphere, and as the future successor of the main peak, he wanted to play the role of the eldest senior brother, and said to Shi Lanxin beside him: "Junior sister Lanxin, although I am still weak, I will do my best to protect the safety of all the junior brothers and sisters. Even if I risk my life, I will never allow anyone to fall in front of me."
Although Li Cangxuan spoke sincerely, any discerning person could tell who he was talking to.
"Brother, you have good intentions, but on the path of cultivation, one should overcome all difficulties with one's own strength before gaining enlightenment. Even if there are dangers, it is better not to bother you. Whether it is an opportunity or a disaster, it is always my way."
Shi Lanxin's voice was calm and unperturbed. His poker face was enough to crush all the enthusiasm: "By the way, strictly speaking, I should be your uncle. Although you and I entered the sect at the same time, you should still pay attention to the sect rules."
"This..." The calm smile on Li Cangxuan's face suddenly froze.
Shi Lanxin stopped talking and looked down at the ferry that was about to arrive.
When Xiao Jingsheng saw this, he couldn't help but secretly shake his head. The world is going downhill. Even in this world of immortal cultivation, the situation of warm-hearted men is getting worse day by day!
Moreover, this proud disciple among the eighteenth generation is a little too straightforward.
If you want a girl to respond to you, try not to put her in an awkward position.
Even dogs in heat will at least know to stay away from people.
You said you wanted to express your feelings for the other person, so you should at least be more subtle. It's okay to say everything at once, but don't just talk to Shi Lanxin.
It's very suffocating!
Luan Yu was not interested in such love affairs. Even though he noticed the two people's clues, he just ordered: "Lan Xin, your cultivation is higher. When we enter the city, you must take good care of this person for me."
You don't need to look to know who he is referring to. It is naturally Luan Yu's most favored royal winemaker, Xiao Jingsheng.
Xiao Jingsheng felt very warm when he saw that the other party had always been thinking about him.
Of course, it would be even better if you could lie directly in each other's arms.
After all, no one here felt safer than in the arms of this great-grandmaster.
Mm, the portion is big too!
[It’s too shallow, too shallow. Why do you have to choose between the master and the apprentice? Only children make choices, adults...]
shut up!
Do you want me to go into the dark room?
Xiao Jingsheng didn't even dare to think about this unreasonable request. He followed the other party's gaze and looked at Shi Lanxin, who was in a low mood, and gave a polite but elegant smile: "Master Shi..."
But he seemed to be stumped by the name.
In terms of the order in which they entered the sect, Xiao Jingsheng actually entered the sect earlier than these two.
But he was always cautious, so he wasted ten years and let the two people in front of him surpass him.
"Senior Brother Xiao is not a disciple of our peak, and he entered the sect earlier than me, so you can call me Junior Sister. You don't have to worry about the relationship between Master and Master. We can just talk about our own affairs."
Shi Lanxin asked himself if he was the kind of person who was good at taking care of others. But even if he felt that his master was not serious on a daily basis, he would not question his master's orders. Moreover, because of the previous definition of someone's "altitude sickness", he deeply realized his own shortcomings in cognition, so he used his stiff facial muscles to force out a relatively kind smile.
She feels that such capable people should be respected.
But from Xiao Jingsheng's point of view, he did not know whether to laugh or cry, as if half of his face was paralyzed. He thought that the other party should continue to maintain his iceberg image.
"Junior Sister Shi." But he still knew how to put on a show, so he just called her that.
"Senior Brother Xiao." Shi Lanxin continued to express his kindness.
This made Junior Brother Li, who was suddenly a generation shorter than him, feel very uncomfortable. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He felt like he was holding his breath and had no way to vent.
This was the most frustrating feeling he had ever experienced since he took the first place among the Ten True Disciples.
Even though he is someone you have known for less than a day, you, Junior Sister Shi, can be so approachable. But why do you treat me, Li Cangxuan, differently?
Could it be that my title as the number one of the ten true disciples of Piao Miao Sect has put too much pressure on you?
I guess that's the way it should be!
Li Cangxuan thought hard and could only find this reason. After all, he was a man who was so perfect that he was almost flawless.
So he turned his head and shifted his gaze to a junior sister who admired him.
The little junior sister's heart suddenly began to race, and she lowered her head in embarrassment at the gaze she had dreamed of for a long time.
It is true!
After getting the confirmation, Li Cangxuan's shriveled chest swelled up again, his slightly hunched waist straightened up, and his cheeks regained the look of 'If Heaven had not given birth to me, Li Cangxuan, the world would have been as dark as a night forever'!
Li Cangxuan imitated Junior Sister Lan Xin and smiled kindly: "Junior Brother Xiao, although you and I are not from the same sect, our meeting is fate, and I will never let you be in any danger."
If you want to eliminate the sense of distance, start with imitation.
Seeing the other party volunteering like this, Xiao Jingsheng wished he had a conspicuous bag beside him to absorb the firepower, so he also imitated him and said: "Then I will rely on Junior Brother Li."
Li Cangxuan: “???”
On the other hand, Shi Lanxin's usually smooth lips corners were slightly raised.
The second update will be at 9 am. For the sake of ranking on the list on Monday, one chapter will be updated earlier. The rest of the time will remain unchanged. ()
