Chapter 82
[Uh, well...Host, this plot is still a long way off, we will discuss it later, but don't worry, no one will really be struck half to death.]
After hearing what the system said, Nan Xi blinked again, feeling slightly satisfied.
【OK.】
The system sensed that Li Yunzheng's gaze had moved away, and it breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Nan Xi had already turned her attention back to Shi Ye, who was covered by the thunder, with a slightly deep look in her eyes.
Although Shi Ye had a tragic fate, he had a unique advantage in terms of cultivation. Nan Xi felt very clearly that although the thunder in front of him looked fierce, its fierceness was different from that of Qi Qian at that time.
The thunder at this time was full of righteousness, and the purpose of striking people was not to kill them, but to temper them. In the plot, after this thunder, Shi Ye's change can be described as earth-shaking.
And even though he entered the Golden Core stage many years later than Nan Xi and the others, he was still within a hundred years old, so he couldn't be said to be without talent. Before, he was still in the outer sect and had few resources, so he was also considered a little genius.
The starting point is after the Golden Elixir, and he will rise rapidly and become one of the geniuses that everyone is paying attention to.
These thoughts flashed through her mind. In reality, Nan Xi looked at the thunderbolts striking one after another without worrying.
The Jindan's thunder tribulation was not severe and passed very quickly. No one spoke during the period. Although it was heavenly thunder, if one could sense a little bit of the Dao rhyme leaked from it, one would gain infinite benefits. There were not many opportunities to watch it up close, so everyone was very serious.
As the sky gradually cleared, Shi Ye's figure appeared, and Nan Xi's gaze gradually shifted towards Qi Qian.
[Let me think, how should I express this next part of the plot? ]
The attention of all the Tianyun Sword Sect disciples was instantly drawn back to Nan Xi, including Shi Ye, who had just finished transcending tribulation. As soon as the brilliance on his body subsided, he walked towards Nan Xi.
Nan Xi walked towards Qiqian silently, muttering to herself.
[I'm sorry, Junior Brother. For the sake of the plot, I can only ignore you for a while. I'll give you a small gift later~]
Nan Xi stopped talking in her heart and looked at Qi Qian. She blinked her eyes slightly and her expression instantly became weak and pitiful, with complete trust and dependence on him.
"A-Qian, you have worked hard recently. You must have a good rest when you go back."
Having felt Nan Xi's indifference before, Qi Qian was actually a little dazed when he saw her expression like this. However, this daze only lasted for a moment, and his expression was no different from before, with a slight coldness.
The expression was much better than the initial coldness and disgust, but there was no sign of closeness.
He just nodded coldly without saying a word.
Nan Xi continued to recite her lines, with a look of joy at meeting her lover and a girl's shyness on her face, and she kept on talking about something.
After a moment, Qi Qian's brows suddenly wrinkled, and his expression became a little colder and fiercer. "Okay, don't say anything more."
Because of Nan Xi's attitude, the strangeness caused by being ignored before completely disappeared, and Qi Qian's attitude towards Nan Xi also returned to normal. He said this because he disliked her being noisy.
Nan Xi was stunned for a moment, then looked a little hurt and lost.
But this time the plot is not mainly about her.
[This is the first scene where Shi Ye and Qi Qian act against each other. Shi Ye is dissatisfied with Qi Qian's attitude towards the heroine and scolds him, making Qi Qian lose face.]
Shi Ye was slightly stunned when Nan Xi's inner voice was suddenly spoken to him. Before he could react, he felt his fellow students' gazes focused on him with eager eyes.
He immediately understood something and knew that he had to cooperate with Nan Xi in the performance, so he walked forward with a bit of stiffness and stood in front of Nan Xi.
Nan Xi's voice was slightly excited, with a tone that showed that she was enjoying the fun, "Yeah, yeah! That's it, next Shi Ye would say, 'Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to my senior sister like that.'"
When Qi Qian said that, Shi Ye actually felt angry, but when Nan Xi said it in such a tone, it seemed to have dissipated his anger.
I could only keep a stiff face and try to keep my voice cool as I said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to my senior sister like that?"
Because he was caught off guard and was nervous about performing for the first time, Shi Ye's voice was stiff. He read out the words abruptly, sounding like he was reciting or using a repeater. It was even more mechanical than the system's mechanical sound, and combined with his ferocious face, the effect was a bit funny.
"Pfft." The disciple of Tianyun Sword Sect who knew everything couldn't help but laughed out loud.
It's not that I don't think Qi Qian's appearance is unsightly, but Shi Ye's look of rushing things to the shelves is really awkward and funny.
Shi Ye also felt a little embarrassed, but at this point, he could only try harder to bandage his face.
Nan Xi sensed something was wrong and glanced at Shi Ye with some doubt, but fortunately he had a cold face to begin with, so there was nothing unusual about him.
Qi Qian, who had a slightly impatient expression on his face just now, was stunned for a moment, and then his brows sank.
He did not look at Shi Ye, but at Nan Xi, his brows still furrowed, "The people of Tianyun Sword Sect are becoming more and more ignorant of rules and regulations."
Nan Xi immediately showed an appearance of fear and trepidation, but in her heart she was extremely happy about the misfortune.
[Next, the junior fellow will...]
Before she could finish her thoughts, she heard the buzzing sound of a sword in her ears. The next moment, all her black hair slowly fell to the ground. Of course, it was all black hair.
There was a sudden silence at the scene, and almost no one understood what was going on.
But Nan Xi suddenly shouted joyfully, "Woo!"
As soon as a word came out, Nan Xi swallowed the sound again, then quickly lowered her head and pretended nothing happened.
[Wow! Junior brother is so awesome! Junior brother is so handsome! ]
So Shi Ye's movement to put away the sword became stiff again, but he could only look at Qi Qian and said coldly: "Now, do I have the qualifications to talk to you?"
In this part of the plot, Qi Qian stood still, but when Nan Xi quietly raised her head, she saw very clearly that his face was turning pale and blue, which looked extremely ugly.
Looking at the look in his eyes, it seemed that he wanted to eat Shi Ye alive.
It was a great humiliation for a cultivator in the Yuanying period to have his hair cut by a cultivator who had just advanced to the Jindan stage.
As Nan Xi's thoughts and words fell, the disciples also shouted excitedly, "Wow! Junior brother is so awesome!"
"As expected of a disciple of the Tianyun Sword Sect!"
"As expected of a man... someone that Senior Sister Nan Xi has high hopes for!"
Cheers surged, and Qi Qian was completely embarrassed. He stared at Shi Ye, with nothing else in his eyes, and said with a bit of gnashing teeth, "Okay, you have the qualifications."
He couldn't say much because he was the one who ignored the person first, and in terms of age and seniority, there was no such gap between him and Shi Ye that he could completely ignore the person.
If Shi Ye was humiliated like this, it would be fine, but Shi Ye didn't. He even cut a strand of Qi Qian's hair.
Nan Xi was not afraid of the excitement and lowered her head slightly, but her eyes were always moving, trying to take in everything the two people were doing with her peripheral vision.
In fact, in the plot, there will be a scene where she will smooth things over and scold Shi Ye, but... since the system doesn't urge her, she will just pretend that nothing happened.
But neither of them was a talkative person, and the atmosphere became more and more intense in silence as they opposed each other. Just as they were about to draw their swords, the disciples of the Tianyun Sword Sect all walked silently behind Shi Ye.
When Nan Xi saw this situation, she quietly moved a step towards Shi Ye.
Qi Qian watched the scene and didn't notice Nan Xi's actions, but he still laughed angrily.
He simply let go of the hand that was already grasping the hilt of the sword and laughed again, "Okay, okay, since there is nothing to talk about, let's go our separate ways. It's quite boring to stay here."
Qi Qian's last words were spoken to Nan Xi who lowered her head.
Nan Xi also felt it, but she rolled her eyes and didn't take it to heart at all.
After saying this, Qi Qian turned around and left. It looked like he was not seriously injured, as his sword flew away in a few moments and he disappeared.
Nan Xi then looked up and breathed a sigh of relief.
The disciples behind him had already come up to Shi Ye and were talking to him, congratulating him on his advancement and praising him for being so handsome, which made the cold-faced handsome boy blush.
【Hahahahahahahaha!!! Look at Qi Qian's ugly face! 】
The deafening and wild laughter made everyone tremble. They were all frightened and looked towards Nan Xi subconsciously, but turned their heads back quickly for fear of being discovered.
But looking back, everyone couldn't help but reveal a hint of nostalgia on their faces.
They hadn't heard Senior Sister's laughter like that for a long time.
Nan Xisi had no idea that everyone had gradually become abnormal. She laughed wildly at Ji Sheng and then adjusted her facial expression.
The only person present who didn't know about Nan Xi's situation was Ji Huizhou. He was the only spectator in this farce. At this time, the atmosphere in Tianyun Sword Sect was cheerful.
But as Nan Xi's friend, he couldn't just leave without saying goodbye, so he walked up to Nan Xi and said, "Since you have nothing else to do, I'm leaving too."
Nan Xi nodded, "Okay, have a safe journey."
"Um."
Before Ji Huizhou turned around, he paused, glanced in the direction of Qi Qian, then looked at Nan Xi and asked, "Do you really have to choose Qi Qian?"
This was something that did not appear in the plot. Nan Xi was a little confused, but she still remembered the character. She didn't nod, but she didn't say anything either.
But looking at her expression, everyone knew what was going on.
The joyous atmosphere of the Tianyun Sword Sect was somewhat muted because of this. Ji Huizhou frowned slightly, and then a dark light flashed in his eyes. He said: "I can only tell you that Qi Qian is not a good man."
Without waiting for Nan Xi to say anything or refute, he took a step back and left quickly.
Nan Xi scratched her hair in confusion and muttered, "This guy is quite good at judging people."
The other Tianyun Sword Sect disciples did not say anything because they knew Nan Xi's true thoughts. They knew that Nan Xi was very clear-headed and did not need to be persuaded. They were afraid that if they said too much, Nan Xi would notice something was wrong, but they still could not help but discuss in a low voice.
"Indeed, Qi Qian doesn't look like a good person at first glance."
"He's just putting on airs. If he wasn't my junior brother, I would have thought he was really amazing."
"If Junior Brother can cut his hair, Senior Sister can easily beat him, right?"
"It's just a decoration after all this time."
Nan Xi listened to what everyone said. It was obvious that no one intended to prevent her from hearing, and her voices were clearly audible.
Nan Xi thought that everyone was telling her implicitly and explicitly that Qiqian was unreliable, but she still felt relaxed and refreshed after listening to it, and her eyes and ears felt clearer.
[Indeed, indeed, everyone is right. ]
[What? You still think I can beat Qi Qian?] Nan Xi pondered for a moment, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it. His eyes lit up, [Right! When I go to Yuan Ying, can I find a chance to beat him up?]
