Chapter 70
Nan Xi actually didn't take this guess to heart. After all, over the years, her relationship with everyone was harmonious and harmonious. For example, the dinner last night made everyone feel very happy.
But before she could figure out a plan, the system intervened because of a plot deviation.
[Host, what's going on with the plot? ]
Nan Xi came back to her senses, her thoughts were pulled back, but facing what the system said, she just acted innocent.
[I don’t know, my junior fellow students suddenly started praising me, I don’t know what’s going on.] She sighed seriously, [Maybe it’s because I’m so charming that everyone likes me.]
System: “…”
It felt speechless, but the others who heard Nan Xi's inner thoughts couldn't help but smile a little.
The system was silent for a while, and then said without question: [No matter what, you must go wherever you need to go, no matter what happens to other people.]
【OK.】
Nan Xi responded, then slowly stood up, frowned, and said, "I am indeed mediocre, incompetent... I really feel unworthy of being liked by everyone."
The man had a smug expression on his face.
At this time, Luo Tingyun said: "Senior Sister is always so humble. We have seen all your achievements."
Nan Xi: "...I don't think I am filled with love alone. My relationship with A-Qian is just..."
That’s right, every love-brained person doesn’t think that he or she is a love-brained person. What he or she said afterwards was that it was just a normal relationship between a man and a woman, but he or she was interrupted by Luo Tingyun.
"Senior Sister and Na Qiqian had some entanglements in the past, but cultivating immortals requires entering the mortal world and experiencing the various flavors of the world. Moreover, Senior Sister and him have never had any substantive relationship. None of us in the sect believe that Senior Sister is filled with only love."
After Luo Tingyun finished speaking, Qi Zhao continued, "Besides, you are only forty years old, but you know everything about what happened fifty years ago. We have reason to doubt your motives and intentions."
That person: “…”
Lian Qianxing stood up, spiritual power surged from his body, and the condensed spiritual power rope was looming.
The man was still struggling and shouting before he was taken away, but his slurred speech and hoarse voice made it difficult to hear what he was saying.
Nan Xi finished her lines and felt a little emotional when she saw the plot development which was completely different from the plot.
Then he turned around and met the admiring gazes of those who were taking the assessment.
Nan Xi: “?”
As soon as I began to wonder, I heard whispers.
"As expected of the Grand Sister of the Tianyun Sword Sect, she is well-loved, talented, virtuous, and has a natural character."
"It's really something I'm looking forward to. I hope I can be as outstanding as the senior sister in the future."
"He is humble and not complacent, so kind to people and things, and has such good qi cultivation skills. He didn't say a word when that person was yelling in front of him. He is really amazing."
“…”
Most of these people are still immature. Even though they know that high-level monks have keen five senses, they have no real sense of it. They whisper to each other without knowing that their words have been heard by the real master, and they are still quite excited.
Nan·Just finished the plot·Xi: "..."
She was praised to the skies, yet she actually felt a little guilty. She looked up and down, and could hardly suppress a smile.
The system felt more speechless and didn't want to say anything at this moment. However, the confusion in the plot could not be blamed on Nan Xi, and it was not a very important plot and would not have much impact.
Therefore, even if the system was speechless, it could not blame Nan Xi.
Afterwards, everyone who came for the assessment was allowed to rest.
Apart from climbing the ladder to heaven, Nan Xi and the others could only watch the other assessments as a background, with the seniors at a higher level providing the perspective.
Ten days passed in this uneventful manner.
Ten days was enough time for them to screen out new disciples who met the requirements. This time, they selected more than a hundred people, which was less than in previous years, but all of them were excellent, with qualifications no worse than in previous years, or even better.
Ten days later, the new disciples selected for the inner sect lined up at the martial arts arena and needed to collect spiritual imprints to be used to make jade identity cards. Afterwards, their senior brothers and sisters took the new disciples to see their residences.
When Nan Xi saw the person who was assigned, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Shi Ye's image was much better than it was half a month ago. Although he was dressed simply, he was at least neat and tidy, less decadent. His brows were sharp and somewhat aggressive.
His facial features are also very good, but his face is expressionless, and because of his appearance, he is too aggressive, making people afraid of him.
When such a person's eyes fell on Nan Xi, there was a hint of tenderness and hesitation in his expression.
Nan Xi pretended not to see such an expression, and smiled in a formal way, saying, "Isn't this the junior fellow from before? You passed the exam from the outer sect?"
This is actually part of the plot, after all, he is the second male lead, and the scenes where the heroine and the second male lead interact are often described, especially when they first meet.
Shi Ye nodded.
The assessment for outer disciples was also scheduled at this time, but it was a completely different procedure from the assessment for new disciples, and there were special people supervising it, so Nan Xi did not see Shi Ye during this period.
As she led the group forward, she said, "People who come in from the outer gate are often more powerful than those who are already in the inner gate. Junior brother, you are also very powerful."
"No... I am only one year younger than you, but I am still in the foundation-building stage."
Shi Ye's voice was a little low, with some indescribable emotions.
"That's also amazing." Nan Xi thought of something and said, "I remember that the outer sect's assessment ended faster than this new disciple assessment. The identity jade token should be arriving soon, right?"
"Well, another senior brother told me that my identity jade token can be made today."
Shi Ye looked at Nan Xi, with an almost greedy love hidden in his eyes, which was always revealed, but was always suppressed by him. No matter how turbulent his inner feelings were, he still looked silent and a little gloomy on the outside.
Since they parted in childhood, it took him more than ten years to find Nan Xi, and another fifty years to see her again and follow her.
In the future... he will do whatever it takes to be someone who can stand by Nan Xi's side and even protect her.
Nan Xi didn't know what Shi Ye was thinking. She was currently sorting out the plot in her head.
[This junior fellow's strength point is not now, it will take some time, until after the first physical torture scene after Qi Qian comes out of seclusion. ]
[I remember that he seemed crazy in the plot and did a lot of things for the heroine. However, he broke through the limitations of his talent with his strength and stood shoulder to shoulder with the proud sons of heaven, but he fell from a height because of the heroine.]
At this moment, in a weapon refining place of the Tianyun Sword Sect, the identity jade token belonging to Shi Ye was slowly coming out of the furnace.
Nan Xi had no idea and was still thinking about the plot.
[Oh, by the way, do you know now, Junior Brother, that I like Qi Qian? ]
Shi Ye followed behind, slightly stunned for a moment, then a look of sadness flashed across his eyes. For a moment, he did not notice the loophole in Nan Xi's thoughts, but only noticed that these words were obviously not uttered by Nan Xi.
[I remember now. I seem to have known this, even decades ago. But I still like the heroine so firmly.]
No matter how surprised and shocked Shi Ye was at this moment, unknown to Nan Xi and Shi Ye, Luo Tingyun and Qi Zhao were following the two of them in secret and communicating with them using the technique of voice transmission.
"This new junior brother should be able to hear what Senior Sister is thinking now." Qi Zhao cast a gentle gaze at the students below and continued, "Because of his special nature, Senior Sister's thoughts should be like a bomb to him."
Luo Tingyun was a little distracted because Nan Xi was counting Shi Ye's contributions. He only reacted belatedly after hearing what Qi Zhao said.
She pursed her lips slightly and said, "But it seems that Senior Sister likes him very much."
Hearing this, Qi Zhao looked at Luo Tingyun with a smile, "Why, are you jealous?"
Qi Zhao didn't mean too much. In his eyes, Luo Tingyun was still a woman. It's just that Luo Tingyun had the best relationship with Nan Xi. Sometimes she would reveal some possessiveness. Although it didn't hurt others and was never noticed by Nan Xi, everyone could see that Luo Tingyun liked Nan Xi very much.
Luo Tingyun's heart skipped a beat at this sentence, but he didn't refute it for a while.
Nan Xi's inner voice continued.
[However, there are still few plots about this junior brother, and few emotional lines. After all, he is just a secret crush. Fortunately, fortunately... The most important thing now is to move out of the prison together. ]
【Then I will have to continue with the plot.】
Shi Ye was silent. He listened to Nan Xi's words almost calmly. His mind worked very quickly and he almost instantly understood the implication of Nan Xi's words.
Senior sister doesn't like Qi Qian... Is someone forcing her?
His eyes suddenly became sharp.
