As Lu Qingyan laughed, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. It wasn't because she was sad or upset, but because she suddenly felt that her decision back then might have been a mistake.
It's one thing for Rong Xu to be affected by the illusion, but how did she fall into it too? When she first joined the Floating Dream Sect, she knew nothing. Even after she grew up, she thought that she would never marry and would only cultivate.
Lu Qingyan turned to leave, but Rong Xu caught up with her.
Lu Qingyan blinked and looked at him. Sure enough, her sadness was only momentary before she came to terms with it. "Lu Qingsi" held no place in his heart at all. Was he now going to find another beauty?
"Hehehe," Lu Qingyan chuckled, "Young Master, is there anything else?"
"What's your name?" Rong Xu asked. Lu Qingyan had been talking for a while but hadn't revealed her own name.
"Lu Qingyan," Lu Qingyan said, feigning anger as she lightly tapped him with the handkerchief in her hand: "Young master, if you're unwilling to talk about love with me, why do you insist on knowing my name?"
"It's nothing." Rong Xu shook his head and turned to leave.
Only now did he truly give up. He couldn't believe that anyone in this world could be exactly alike; even the closest blood relatives would have some differences. Lu Qingyan and Lu Qingsi were identical except for the birthmark on their faces, so why weren't they the same person?
If that's the case, he'll feel less guilty.
Seeing Rong Xu about to leave, Lu Qingyan's eyes darted around, and she grabbed Rong Xu's clothes, screaming, "Help! Someone is molesting me!"
The voice was plaintive and heart-wrenching, making one feel sorry for the woman's tragic fate and a sense of justice welling up within them.
"You—" Rong Xu had never been wronged in his life, and in his shock, he forgot to break free.
Immediately, someone rushed over upon hearing the commotion, drawing their sword and pointing it at Rong Xu: "Stop! You look so handsome, yet you commit such a disgraceful act in broad daylight! Do you even care about the law and justice?!"
Rong Xu said in a deep voice, "Miss Lu, we are strangers who met by chance. Why are you so vicious as to try to harm me like this?"
Lu Qingyan sobbed, "What are you saying, young master? It was clearly you who took advantage of my beautiful face and tricked me into this alley under the pretense of asking for directions, intending to do something indecent to me. How can you turn around and accuse me of slandering you? A woman's reputation is always more important than a man's. How could I use this to frame you?"
After Lu Qingyan finished speaking, she ran behind the man and said timidly, "This humble woman thanks the brave man for saving me."
The woman's unique fragrance wafted from behind, and the valiant man in front straightened his chest, eager to display his bravery in front of the beauty.
Rong Xu was unwilling to get entangled with these people any longer and was about to leave on his sword when he discovered that his spiritual power was gradually disappearing.
How could this be? Rong Xu was shocked. The strong man had already stepped forward and threw a punch at Rong Xu.
"Pfft—" No one knows where this person got such strength. With just one punch, Rong Xu's strong body couldn't withstand it and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
A cultivator's blood is extremely precious. Looking at the large pool on the ground, Lu Qingyan thought to herself with a smile, "So much blood! How long will it take him to replenish it?"
"Forget it, forget it," Lu Qingyan said, stopping the strong man who was about to make a move.
