Chapter 62: Recognizing the Master and Being Jealous of Himself
Back in the room, Bei Liyuan clutched the teacup with a heavy look in his eyes, and his chess style was exactly the same as his master's.
On the evening of the second day, Bei Liyuan hurried back to his room with his injured body and was just seen by Xihe.
"Friend Bei Dao is injured?"
Bei Liyuan pretended to be fine, "No, I just fell on the way back."
After returning to the room, Bei Liyuan immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and sat cross-legged to heal his wounds. Originally, he wanted to try again under the pretext of being injured, but unexpectedly, he met the man in silver clothes that day and was seriously injured in the fight.
While he was regulating his breathing, Xihe's voice came from outside the door: "Friend Beidao, is it convenient for you?"
Bei Liyuan suppressed his injuries and stood up to open the door. Xihe took out a bottle of medicine and handed it to him. Bei Liyuan took it and thanked him.
After watching Xihe leave, Bei Liyuan's injuries could no longer be suppressed. The moment he closed the door, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Then he sat cross-legged and turned his spiritual breath to heal his injuries.
Two full hours passed before his injuries were only 50% healed. After resting for a while, Bei Liyuan once again turned his spiritual energy to heal his injuries, and this continued until midnight.
There were light footsteps outside the door, and Bei Liyuan lay down and dozed off.
Following the sound of a door opening, Xihe entered the room and walked to Beiliyuan's bedside, frowning, "He's so restless when I'm not watching him for a moment. Who did he fight with to get so badly injured?"
When giving Bei Liyuan medicine during the day, Xihe silently took Bei Liyuan's pulse. Realizing that he was seriously injured and knowing that Bei Liyuan was deliberately concealing the truth, he hurriedly left.
As he spoke, he gently grasped Bei Liyuan's pulse and probed his spiritual energy. His injuries had healed by 90%, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he took out a spiritual medicine, moved his sword lightly, and the spiritual medicine turned into a brilliant light that enveloped Bei Liyuan, while also transmitting spiritual power to heal him.
Half an hour later, Xihe withdrew his spiritual breath, tucked in the corners of Bei Liyuan's quilt, and then left.
Bei Liyuan quietly opened his eyes and looked at Xihe's leaving back with his dark eyes a little moist. "Silly Master, how could you accompany me into this dangerous place?"
He always thought that he had deep feelings for his master, while his master was only slightly attracted to him. But now he realized that his master also valued him more than his own life. He was happy but also angry that he had been careless and harmed his master. His master had not yet established a foundation in cultivation. If he had not possessed Xihe's body and followed him rashly, the group of cultivators he met in the daytime might have been killed.
…
The next day, at noon, Bei Liyuan went to Xihe's room with a food box. "Fellow Daoist, since you let me stay here, I can't just sit there and do nothing. So I made a few side dishes as a thank you for taking me in. Do you think they're to your liking?"
Xihe's eyes flashed with displeasure. It turned out that Bei Liyuan would also cook for others. He said coldly, "It's just a small favor. Don't take it to heart, Brother Bei. I have been fasting for a long time. I appreciate your kindness. Please take it back."
Bei Liyuan paused as he was about to take out the food. Master was angry? Why?
Xihe said again: "Friend Bei, I want to take a nap."
Bei Liyuan said hurriedly: "Then I won't bother you anymore."
After leaving the room, Bei Liyuan couldn't understand why Li Youyang was angry.
Yu Chen just happened to see Bei Liyuan coming out of Xihe's room, his eyes became even colder.
After Bei Liyuan left, Yu Chen arrived outside Xihe's door and asked, "Xihe, can I come in?"
Xihe frowned: "Come in."
Yu Chen asked in a questioning tone, "I saw that man leave your room just now. Why did he come to see you again?"
Xihe said unhappily, "Cook a dish as a thank you."
Yuchen silently clenched his fists, annoyed. Xihe was angry because of that person. Since they met, this was the first time he saw Xihe so angry. Xihe treated that person differently, and he couldn't let that person stay here any longer.
Then he chatted with Xihe for a few more words before leaving.
At night, Bei Liyuan made a few more dishes and went to Xihe's room. Xihe's eyes turned cold. What? If one meal is not enough, why do you have to make it for others every day?
Needless to say, Bei Liyuan was kicked out as soon as he entered the door this time. Bei Liyuan could also feel that Li Youyang was even more annoyed with him, but he didn't understand the reason, so he could only be more thoughtful.
Another day passed like this, and Bei Liyuan discovered that Li Youyang was completely unwilling to pay attention to him. He stood in the distance with a food box, staring blankly at Xihe's door.
"Friend Beidao, please stay away from Xihe in the future. He is not someone you can covet." Yu Chen warned in a deep voice.
Bei Liyuan suddenly woke up. Yes, Master was now Xihe in the eyes of others. Master didn't know that he had recognized him. Such attentiveness would definitely cause Master to misunderstand! Damn him! How could he ignore such an important matter? It seemed that he still needed to explain it clearly to Master.
Just as he was about to go look for Xihe, Yuchen stopped him and said, "Friend Beidao, didn't you hear what I said?"
Bei Liyuan frowned and was about to take action, but then he thought about Li Youyang's current identity, which would make it difficult for him to deal with the situation, and his master was angry at the moment. If he went over rashly, he might not even be able to see him, so he turned and left.
Yu Chen's eyes were cold.
"It seems Xihe feels very different about this fellow Taoist. Maybe she was interested in him when they first met. Yuchen, Xihe is usually very boring. I once thought he would be lonely for the rest of his life. Now he has finally met someone he likes. As friends, we should help him."
Yu Chen's eyes were cold and gloomy. "A person of unknown origin approaching Xihe must have ulterior motives. I will not let him achieve his goal."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left. Ling Ye clenched his fists silently and asked, "Why can't you look back at me?"
…
In the middle of the night, Bei Liyuan quietly walked to the outside of Xihe's room. Just as he was about to climb in through the window, a cold palm attacked him. Bei Liyuan raised his palm to meet the attack, and both of them were knocked back several steps.
Yu Chen said coldly, "Friend Bei, didn't you hear what I said before?"
A murderous look flashed across Bei Liyuan's eyes.
Yu Chen repeated, "Stay away from him, or don't blame me for being merciless."
Bei Liyuan said in a deep voice: "I'll return the same words to you. He is not someone you can covet."
"court death!"
Yu Chen summoned his magic sword and slashed at Bei Liyuan, who met him with the sword. A trace of blood immediately appeared at the corner of his lips. Yu Chen used his spiritual energy again, and Bei Liyuan could not bear the pressure and knelt on the ground.
"Now, remember to stay away from him."
Bei Liyuan's lips curled up into a cold smile: "Even if I die, I will never leave him."
A murderous intent flashed across Yu Chen's eyes, and when he used his spiritual energy again, a burst of spiritual energy repelled him.
"Xihe? He has other intentions towards you."
Xihe bent down to help Beiliyuan up and probed into his spiritual breath to check for injuries. Fortunately, the injuries were not serious.
Yuchen: "Xihe!"
Xihe said coldly: "Why hurt innocent people?"
Yu Chen clenched his fists and said, "Just now he was trying to climb through the window into your bedroom. I was worried that he might harm you, so I took action."
Xihe looked at Beiliyuan and asked, "Do you have something to ask me?"
Bei Liyuan lowered his eyes and said with a bit of grievance: "I seem to have annoyed fellow Daoist, and I want to apologize."
Yu Chen folded his arms and sneered: "Climbing through the window to apologize, you're really sincere."
Xihe frowned, thinking that this person might have injured his brain when entering this place.
"Friend Bei Dao, you're overthinking it. I'm not angry with you. I'm just thinking about something and feeling down. It's getting late. Friend Bei Dao, go back and get some rest."
Bei Liyuan let out a sound of grievance.
Xihe looked at Yuchen again, feeling a bit troubled. After all, he was now borrowing someone else's body, and this person was Xihe's best friend. He really had no right to use this body to hold Yuchen accountable. Finally, he sighed and said, "It's getting late. Go back and rest."
Yu Chen clenched his fists and wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
Another hour passed, and Xihe quietly went to Beiliyuan's room. Seeing that Beiliyuan was already asleep, she quietly probed into his spiritual energy to heal him. But at this moment, Beiliyuan suddenly grabbed her arm, and then she fell onto the bed.
Bei Liyuan took advantage of the situation and leaned over to kiss Xihe on the lips. Xihe was immediately annoyed and tried to push him away but the kiss became deeper and more domineering, so she finally gave up struggling.
After the kiss, Xihe's eyes became as cold as ice, and his face was so dark that ink seemed to be dripping out.
Bei Liyuan hurriedly explained: "Master, I specially made your favorite food because I recognized you. I missed you so much just now that I couldn't help it. You can hit me or scold me, but don't get angry at yourself."
Li Youyang was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses: "You recognized me? How did you recognize me?"
Bei Liyuan curled his lips: "Intuition."
Li Youyang frowned.
Bei Liyuan stood up straight and gently held the person in his arms: "Puppet, Master's puppet has a pear blossom mark on it, which is easy to recognize. Later, I played chess with Master, and the style of chess was the same. Later, Master came to see me in the middle of the night, and I confirmed that it was Master."
Li Youyang's eyes darkened. "So the injury was intentional, Bei Liyuan, you've become quite capable."
Bei Liyuan shook his head: "Originally, I wanted to pretend to be injured to test the waters, but when I went out, I ran into the man in silver clothes that day, and then I really got injured. But he wasn't much better either."
Li Youyang frowned.
Bei Liyuan then asked, "What about Master? Why is he possessing Xihe's body?"
Li Youyang shook his head. "I don't know either. At that time, you were tricked by Nan Liujing into falling into the bloody vortex, so I chased after you. But as soon as I got there, I saw... Li Yuan? You... were crying?"
Hearing Bei Liyuan's low sobs, Li Youyang hurriedly turned around and saw Bei Liyuan's tears like broken beads sliding down the corners of his eyes.
Li Youyang frowned. Why did she suddenly burst into tears? "I will avenge you later. Be good and stop crying."
Bei Liyuan choked up and said, "Master, do you know that Nan Liujing wants to kill me?"
Li Youyang remained silent. Of course he knew and understood why Bei Liyuan was crying. He sighed silently, "I won't do that next time."
But Bei Liyuan was still crying. Li Youyang rubbed his eyebrows. He came to find Bei Liyuan at such a risk of his life. Doesn't it prove that Bei Liyuan likes and cares about him? Although it is a bit risky, shouldn't he be happier?
Li Youyang thought it would be alright after a while, but Bei Liyuan cried even harder. Li Youyang clenched his hands silently, then finally resigned himself to his fate and let go. Coax him! Isn't coaxing enough?
Then he grabbed Bei Liyuan's collar and kissed him on the lips. Bei Liyuan's mind went blank in an instant and he had no time to cry.
After the kiss, Li Youyang's ears turned slightly red.
