Xia Chao simply disliked those who sought fame and fortune, but he always held an appreciative attitude towards Qi Chang'an, whom he considered a close friend. "Alliance Leader Qi, you and I are both righteous people, and we are both working hard to eliminate the underworld. There is no need for so many formalities between us."
"Brother Xia is right." Qi Chang'an glanced at Feng Guang without leaving a trace, then quickly looked away.
If Xia Chao knew that Qi Chang'an, whom he considered a brother, wanted to pursue his daughter, one wonders what he would think.
Qi Chang'an then said gently, "Since the underworld is determined to eliminate our righteous people from the shadows before the war to stop, they will definitely try again after failing to kill Master Xiao this time."
"Whether it's a conspiracy or an open scheme..." Xia Chao said in a deep voice, "We must ensure that when the war to stop begins, there will be three martial arts masters going to Guanxian Island to participate in the competition."
“The Left-Handed Swordsman has unfortunately been murdered. Besides Master Xiao and Sai Feifei, we need to select another expert to fight.” Qi Chang’an looked slightly troubled as he thought of this. To ensure victory in the Zhige War, they must select a top-notch expert, but not everyone can be called an “expert.” “This matter can be discussed in detail. Let’s first ensure that we are not in such a passive position the next time someone from the Demonic Sect launches a sneak attack.”
Using hallucinations to kill is an evil method that no one had ever heard of or seen before.
They started talking about serious matters, and Fengguang couldn't get a word in edgewise. She had never been involved in these kinds of江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) affairs before, and after listening to them for a while, she found them boring. So she told her parents and left the room alone.
Feng Guang left the room and walked towards her courtyard. On the way, she unexpectedly ran into Hua Yan. She had wondered whether she would feel resentful or unwilling when she saw Hua Yan again, but to her surprise, she felt very calm.
Feng Guang was about to leave as if Hua Yan didn't exist, but Hua Yan called her back.
"cousin……"
Feng Guang paused, looking at Hua Yan before her with an attitude that was neither particularly friendly nor unfriendly, "What?"
"Cousin, I just wanted to ask how Master Xiao is doing?" Hua Yan asked with concern. "I've met Master Xiao a few times, and I'm a little worried about him."
Actually, Xiao Baishu's injury wasn't part of the plot Hua Yan wrote. The plot seemed to be developing in a direction Hua Yan didn't know about, which inevitably made her feel apprehensive.
“Master Xiao has woken up and will be fine after a few more days of rest. Right now, the martial arts world is discussing how to deal with the situation. I have no interest in listening to it. If you are interested, you can go and listen for yourself.” Feng Guang was about to leave when Hua Yan blocked her way again. She frowned, “Is there anything else?”
"I just... want to chat with my cousin for a bit." Hua Yan tried her best to put on a friendly smile. "I know that my cousin dislikes me because of Young Master Wanxuan. She thinks that Young Master Wanxuan likes me, which is why she is hostile towards me. But I can assure my cousin that I have absolutely no romantic feelings for Young Master Wanxuan."
Upon hearing this, Feng Guang felt neither relief nor any emotional fluctuation. She simply said, "I don't care about what you're saying. Who Senior Brother likes is his business."
