"Ye Fuchen, how did you meet that demonic cultivator?" Xu Nian knew that flirting shouldn't go too far; just the right amount of ambiguity was fine.
I'm grateful for my own weak heart; just looking at this face evokes mixed emotions.
Otherwise, she really couldn't act out the feeling of being moved.
"Oh no, Junior Sister Li is waiting for me to rescue her!" Ye Fuchen's face turned anxious.
Li, Junior Sister?
Xu Nian's eyes flashed. Was this Junior Sister Li the other person who was entangled with Ye Fuchen?
Xu Nian suddenly lost the will to continue entangled with Ye Fuchen.
"Then Fellow Daoist Ye, go and save your junior sister!" Xu Nian's sudden cold attitude startled Ye Fuchen.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, then we shall meet again if fate allows." Ye Fuchen was anxious to save his junior sister, so he didn't say anything more to Xu Nian and hurriedly fled in one direction on his jade flute.
"Host, why didn't you follow? What will happen to your mission?" Yuanbao, perched on Xu Nian's shoulder, watched as Ye Fuchen's escape light completely disappeared, then turned its head back to Xu Nian.
“It’s no use. Even if I pretend to like him and love him, my Dao heart can’t deceive myself. My Dao heart is the same as my greedy heart, unwavering.” This is what worries Xu Nian. No matter how well she acts, she still doesn’t like him in the end.
He was not only heartbroken but also deeply moved by Ye Fuchen.
When she found out he was entangled with someone else, she lost interest in him.
Even if you force yourself to continue acting, the result might be that your Dao heart becomes completely firm and your cultivation level rises to another level.
"So what do you plan to do, host?" Yuanbao was also worried; it seemed that this mission was doomed again.
"Yuanbao, who does Ye Fuchen's face look like?" Xu Nian's abrupt question almost made Yuanbao tell the truth.
"Ah! Nobody, host, why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Yuanbao covered his mouth with his paw to prevent himself from saying something he shouldn't have, in order to stop the damage in time.
"It seems you can't say, so never mind." Xu Nian didn't press Yuanbao and gently brushed the question aside.
“Host.” Yuanbao nuzzled Xu Nian’s cheek, his eyes brimming with tears of gratitude.
"Yuanbao, it seems I can only wander aimlessly in the cultivation world." Xu Nian sighed, her brows furrowing as she looked in the direction Ye Fuchen had left.
"Host, you should go earn some spirit stones! You sold all of the original owner's wealth for points, and now you're penniless. You won't even be able to afford your next meal." Yuanbao really wanted to eat roast suckling pig again, so as a pet, it could only urge Xu Nian to earn spirit stones.
Xu Nian thought of the few fragmented spirit stones in her storage space and fell silent, a rare occurrence. "Yuanbao, let's see if there are any secret realms nearby, and we'll go dig them up."
"Host, head in the direction Ye Fuchen just went. There's a secret realm that's opened there. We can still go and dig it up if we go now," Yuanbao said excitedly.
It was overjoyed at the thought of digging up treasure, selling spirit stones, and buying roast suckling pig.
"Okay." Xu Nian stepped onto the oil-paper umbrella and left.
As soon as Xu Nian left, Qing Xuan, who had been hiding in the shadows, finally appeared, but his expression was very unpleasant.
The mere thought of Xu Nian smiling so gently at a strange male cultivator and uttering words that were almost a confession filled him with a desire to destroy it all.
She avoids him like the plague, yet she feels a fondness for someone she has just met.
How could she do this?
If you like him, why can't you like him back?
Qingxuan suddenly thought of his master.
His master used every means to marry his junior sister.
Qingxuan lowered his eyes. Was he going to do that too?
But he just couldn't bear to watch her fall for someone else!
If he's destined to have her only by taking her away, then he'll just have to get her first.
A look of determination appeared on Qingxuan's gentle and refined face.
He looked in the direction Xu Nian had left, flicked his Gentleman's Sword, and stepped onto his flying sword to chase after her.
...
Xu Nian flew for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, and then he saw the secret realm that Yuanbao had mentioned.
A large number of people gathered outside the secret realm. Some were selling things, some were waiting for the people inside the secret realm to come out, and some were elders bringing their younger relatives out for training.
Xu Nian's entry into the secret realm was not hindered in any way.
The entrance to the secret realm was a huge orange-red light gate. Xu Nian stepped through it, and when she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a world filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I never expected to meet you here." Ye Fuchen's surprised voice silenced Xu Nian.
Is this considered a tragic fate?
She wouldn't even come close to him, but after entering a secret realm and being teleported, she was still teleported to his side.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, what are you doing here? Is this your junior sister?" Xu Nian looked at the woman next to Ye Fuchen.
She had almond-shaped eyes, peach-like cheeks, fair skin, and a petite figure. When she looked at him, her eyes held a curious gaze.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, this is my junior sister, her name is Li Huan." When Ye Fuchen spoke of Li Huan, a helpless and doting look appeared in his eyes.
"Sister Xu, you're so pretty, and your little pig is so cute. Can I touch it?" Li Huan asked Yuan Bao with sparkling eyes.
“No, it doesn’t want to.” Xu Nian wasn’t making this up; Yuanbao genuinely disliked being touched by others, except for her.
Sure enough, as Li Huan reached out her hand, Yuan Bao turned her head to the side to avoid Li Huan's outstretched hand.
"Oh! Sister Xu, just let me touch this little fat pig, just once." Li Huan hadn't gotten a chance to touch it, so she wasn't going to give up. Always pampered, she got a little temperamental and reached out to grab Yuanbao.
"Host, someone is molesting me! Help!" Yuanbao cried out from behind Xu Nian.
Seeing that Li Huan still wanted to grab the gold ingot, Xu Nian's eyes turned cold. She summoned her oil-paper umbrella and held it in front of her, saying, "Fellow Daoist Li, as the saying goes, a gentleman does not take what others cherish."
At the same time, Ye Fuchen grabbed Li Huan's outstretched hand and said, "Li Huan, stop fooling around."
Li Huan seized the opportunity to tug at Ye Fuchen's sleeve and said coquettishly, "Senior Brother Ye, that little fat pig is so cute, can you buy it for me?"
Li Huan thought that since her senior brother knew Xu Nian, buying a pet should be easy.
"Li Huan, you're making things difficult for me. If you like pets, I'll take you to the market to buy one after we leave the secret realm, but you can forget about this one, Fellow Daoist Xu," Ye Fuchen scolded.
"Hmph! I want that one, Senior Brother Ye, please buy it for me!" Li Huan persisted, clinging to Ye Fuchen's hand and pleading coquettishly.
"Li Huan, don't be silly." Ye Fuchen's tone became serious.
Upon hearing this, Li Huan pouted in grievance, tears streaming down her face, and soon she began to sob.
Ye Fuchen looked at Li Huan with a headache. Seeing her crying so hard, he had no choice but to turn to look at Xu Nian, only to find her looking at them coldly.
Ye Fuchen hesitated for a moment, but under Xu Nian's indifferent gaze, he couldn't utter a single word.
Xu Nian wouldn't give Ye Fuchen a chance to speak. "Fellow Daoist Ye, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
She didn't want to get involved with these two. One was spoiled and willful because of her senior brother's affection, and the other was endlessly indulged. Both of them were troublesome; she couldn't be close to them, much less travel with them.
