Chapter 50 The Peak Group Competition Begins
"Fifth Junior Brother!"
Yu Xian'er stopped him, turned to look at Yu Xinyao, and said, "Our old grudges should not involve others."
"I told you, what are you going to do about it?" Yu Xinyao raised her chin slightly, looking completely confident.
"Oh, it's so lively here." At this moment, Nan Muyin walked in with pastries and candies, sat down next to Yu Xian'er, and said with a smile, "Xinyao, what did you just say?"
"N-nothing..."
"Would you like to come over and have some pastries?"
Yu Xinyao forced an awkward smile and politely declined, "No need... I'm already full..."
Nan Muyin narrowed her eyes slightly and chuckled, "Oh, then don't have nothing better to do than cause trouble everywhere, or Brother Zhuo will worry."
"My men don't need your lecture!" Zhuo Yunze said with a displeased expression.
"That's right, you two are already engaged."
Nan Muyin placed the pastries in Yu Xian'er's hands, looked at him with a half-smile, and continued, "Then keep your people in check and stop provoking Xian'er time and time again. If you can't control them... I don't mind teaching her a lesson for you."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xinyao's face turned pale, and she subconsciously hid behind Zhuo Yunce.
Yu Xian'er grabbed Nan Muyin's hand, signaling him to stop talking. This scene made Zhuo Yunce's face even more gloomy. He glared at Yu Xinyao beside him, got up, and left.
"Brother Ce... wait for me!"
The next day, early morning.
Ye Luo was awakened by the heat.
The heat source behind him was tightly wrapped around him, making it impossible for him to move. "Loosen your grip a little... I need to get up."
Jun Yi sniffed his neck, his golden eyes darkening slightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "You should take the Fragrance-Suppressing Pill."
"Ah, it smells nice again?"
"Um."
Ye Luo took out a pill and swallowed it. After a moment, she brought her neck close to his and asked, "Quickly, smell it for me. Does it still have any scent?"
Jun Yi looked at the fair and slender neck, touched the protruding sharp teeth with the tip of his tongue, and said in a hoarse voice, "That's all."
"That's good." Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
...
Ye Luo lowered her eyes and let him hold her. It seemed that this had become a habit. She couldn't help but rub her little face against his broad shoulders and became drowsy in the cool fragrance.
Jun Yi chuckled softly, lowered his head to kiss his light-colored lips, and then raised his dragon tail to slap his firm buttocks. "Get up quickly, didn't you say you were going to get up early?"
Ye Luo hummed softly, half-awake, and liked to draw out the nasal sound, making Jun Yi think it was her being coquettish. Jun Yi couldn't help but gently bite Ye Luo's neck. "Don't want to get up, hmm?"
Ye Luo seemed to sense danger in his tone, and with her eyes half-open, she sat up abruptly, "Get up, get up!"
However, due to their dawdling, the so-called early rise turned into a late rise, and the group from Peach Blossom Valley left first.
When Ye Luo arrived at the venue with a steamed bun in her mouth, she found that the number of audience members in the stands today seemed to be more than double that of the previous two days. "It really is a top-level competition!"
"Go for it, Senior Brother!" Cen Feng and Xiao Huan waved to the crowd below.
Nan Muyin chuckled: "Don't worry."
Ye Luo stared at Nan Muyin in a daze. They had been together for so long, but she had never seen him truly make a move. She couldn't help but feel a little expectant.
About fifteen minutes later, Mu Tai raised his hand on the high platform and waved a scroll, saying in a strong voice: "The map for the peak group competition is: The Peak of Ice and Snow!"
"The competition has officially begun!"
As a flash of silver light disappeared, the participating disciples entered the secret realm, and excited cheers rang out in the venue.
Ye Luo: "Wow, so enthusiastic!"
Xiao Huan: "That's for sure. The most exciting part of each tournament is the showdown between the top groups, and many powerful figures from major forces come to watch."
"A powerful force? What are they doing here?"
"Naturally, we should select capable individuals."
"Oh." Ye Luo suddenly realized, then asked, "But... besides our Immortal Alliance, are there other major forces?"
"Of course there are. The Lower Cultivation Realm is vast, and the Immortal Alliance is just a corner of the Eastern Region. There are many other powerful forces or families that exist there as well."
"What are they roughly?"
"There are many... such as the infamous City of Ten Thousand Sins, the mysterious Star Pavilion, and the powerful Glazed Pavilion and Heavenly Sect, etc. Any one of these forces is a force that the Immortal Alliance cannot underestimate."
Ye Luo gripped the fan tightly in her hand, looked at Xiao Huan and smiled, saying, "Senior Brother Xiao, you really know everything about the cultivation world."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huan was slightly taken aback, scratched his head and chuckled, "I only heard about it secondhand, and I've also read quite a few books, so I only know a little bit about it."
Suddenly, Ye Luo sensed someone watching her. She subtly probed with her divine sense but found nothing.
"Don't make any rash moves. There are quite a few high-level cultivators here today," Jun Yi transmitted his voice, his tone somewhat solemn. "Just pretend you don't know anything and continue watching the competition."
"Is he your enemy?" Ye Luo felt a chill run down her spine and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"It's not quite clear yet, but it's not just one person."
"Then let's leave quickly?"
"No need, that would only make me more conspicuous. I've already concealed my presence using a secret technique; they won't be able to detect anything."
"Oh, okay." Ye Luo suddenly felt a little powerless. What if he really encountered danger? With his current cultivation level, what should he do?
"Luo'er".
"Huh?" Ye Luo was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was calling her.
"I've recovered to about 60 or 70 percent of my former strength, which is more than enough to deal with them. You don't need to worry too much."
"Um!"
Within the secret realm, a world of ice and snow unfolds before your eyes, a vast expanse of white covered in silver.
On the snow-covered mountains, the trees shrouded in mist become icy branches and jade-like trunks, with clusters of silver flowers blooming on the glistening ice branches.
Nan Muyin stepped onto the frozen lake, looked up at the snowflakes falling from the sky, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips. His first encounter with Yu Xian'er seemed to be in a similar scene, and her beautiful figure dancing in the snow entered his heart at this moment.
Suddenly, several sword beams attacked from behind him, but he remained calm and composed, raising his hand to raise a spiritual energy shield, easily blocking all the attacks.
The three attackers were startled and quickly formed a complex magic array, unleashing several cyan cones with a few whooshing sounds.
"Wood Rain Technique?" Nan Muyin smiled and quickly formed a hand seal with one hand, creating a huge cyan sword that suddenly flew out and attacked the three of them.
"Greatsword Technique!" Upon seeing this, the three quickly dodged, their spell forced to a halt just as it was about to be cast.
Nan Muyin moved slightly, leaving behind afterimages, and in a flash caught someone, delivering a knee strike straight to their face.
The man let out a muffled groan of pain as his tall body flew backward, sliding hundreds of meters across the ice before coming to a stop.
