But Feng Guang was surprised, "The Demon-Suppressing Tower is extremely dangerous. Why would your master send you there? Didn't he know it was a very dangerous place?"
“Girl, don’t worry about me. If demons and monsters really escape from the Demon Suppression Tower, they might wreak havoc on the world. I came here precisely to prevent such a possibility from happening.”
"So you're so righteous that you're willing to risk your life?"
“Young lady, you are also a member of the Xuanmen sect, so you should know the Xuanmen's philosophy of saving the world. As the chief disciple of the Xuanmen sect, I have a responsibility to do so.”
"Nonsense!" Feng Guang was angry for the first time. "I know what the Xuanmen philosophy is, and I know what responsibility is, but your life is your own. No matter what happens, you can't put your life and death aside. Haven't you thought about how many people would feel sad for you if something really happened to you? How heartbroken your friends would be?"
He seemed to pause for a long time before slowly saying, "Young lady, I have no friends."
"……ah?"
"I am the disciple who is in charge of the Discipline Hall."
The Discipline Hall is a place specifically for catching lawbreakers and disorderly conduct. Naturally, it offends many people and is the target of criticism from the disciples behind their backs. The disciples of the Discipline Hall are also secretly ostracized by others. Don't be fooled by the harmonious atmosphere of the Xuanmen sect; with so many people, it is ultimately a microcosm of the secular world.
Feng Guang said, "Then... what about your junior sister? Since she often comes to see you, doesn't that mean she's willing to get close to you?"
“Junior sister, she…” Fang Yue’s voice was rather uneasy, “She just wanted me to be lenient with her when she made a mistake.”
She was taken aback by the answer and was somewhat stunned. "Well...you young men and women, with all this back and forth, hasn't anything else happened?"
For example, holding hands, kissing, or something like that...
Well, she was too embarrassed to say it in front of such a serious man.
"You're overthinking it, young lady. My junior sister is just my junior sister, and I have no desire for romantic feelings between us."
Suddenly, a lot of noise came from his side. Feng Guang couldn't help but lose his teasing mood and asked nervously, "Fang Yue, which floor of the Demon Suppression Tower are you on?"
"Eighteen floors."
This is the highest level, and locked up here are nothing but vicious and wicked monsters.
Through the Cold Abyss Sword, Feng Guang could clearly hear the roars of monsters coming from that direction, as well as gusts of demonic wind formed by demonic energy. She hurriedly asked, "Did you bring the exorcism talisman? Have you set up a defensive formation around yourself? Did you bring any healing medicine?"
"I have prepared all of these." His voice suddenly softened considerably, and although it sounded the same as his usual voice, a closer listen revealed a difference.
Feng Guang didn't have time to pay attention to this unusual situation. "Don't talk to me. Be careful and don't get ambushed by those demons."
I will be careful.
As soon as Fang Yue finished speaking, several sword sounds rang out. Feng Guang knew that he must be fighting with those demons. Since she couldn't see them, she could only judge the situation by listening to the sounds. Fortunately, there was no news of Fang Yue being injured.
She had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the sound of a sword piercing flesh, followed by a hoarse, smug voice: "Disciples of the Xuanmen Sect, your vigilance is nothing more than this."
"Fang Yue!" Feng Guang stood up and called out to Han Yuanjian, "Fang Yue, are you alright?!"
"I...I'm fine..." His voice was very weak, likely due to excessive blood loss.
"Hmm?" Some kind of monster spoke again, "There's another woman here?"
Feng Guang slammed his hand on the table. "Hey! I don't care what kind of demon you are, if you dare touch him, believe me, I won't let you get away with it!"
"Oh? There's someone who dares to talk to me like that? I'd like to see what you can do to me even if I kill this kid."
"Wait, stop!"
"The scenery..." Fang Yue's voice softened considerably as he said haltingly, "Don't feel sorry for me..."
"Fang Yue!"
The Cold Abyss Sword suddenly shone brightly, illuminating the entire bamboo house. When the light faded, the people inside the house had vanished.
