Fan Li put down the bucket, did not walk over, and said coldly: "What do you want to see me for, Senior Brother?"

Su Muqing seemed a little hesitant, "Ari, I..."

Fan Li was too lazy to correct his address and interrupted him directly, saying, "Are you here to help Second Senior Brother get the golden tiger back? I tell you it's impossible. If he thinks I'm being unreasonable and taking advantage of him, I can give him spirit stones or other things in exchange."

"In short, he can forget about the golden tiger." Fan Li said with a firm attitude and a piercing look.

"No." Su Muqing said, "I'm not here for anyone, I just want to find you."

Ever since Song Xixi appeared, Su Muqing seldom came to her place. Even if he did, it was definitely for something else.

Fan Li narrowed her eyes and looked at him, not quite believing it.

Su Muqing was a little helpless, "Ali, don't worry, the golden tiger is yours. I promise you that no one will take it away from you again."

Fan Li looked better, dusted himself off, and said, "Let's be frank, what do you want from me?"

Su Muqing came over and took the initiative to help her pick up the bucket on the ground.

Fan Li raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is this to please her? Su Muqing, the sun rises from the west?

Su Muqing was a little uncomfortable: "Ali, how are you these days?"

Fan Li stared at him warily: "I'm fine, what do you want to do?"

Su Muqing pursed his lips and forced a smile: "You don't have to be so wary of me, I just want to care about you... just as a senior brother."

Fan Li sneered: "Then I'll trouble you to carry it for me, Senior Brother. I worked so hard to get the water, don't let a drop leak out."

Su Muqing said with a smile: "Okay."

Fan Li looked at him for a moment and said nothing. After all, it was not appropriate to hit someone who smiled at her. She couldn't just chase him away like that. And to be honest, she was very curious about what Su Muqing was planning.

Su Muqing followed Fan Li silently.

Fan Li deliberately did not go back to the cave directly, but made an excuse to go to the library to borrow a book and deliberately took a long walk outside.

Then the disciples from all the peaks saw the eldest senior brother, who was high and mighty and had never been involved in domestic activities, carrying a bucket of water in each hand and following Fan Li closely, looking very humble.

Everyone who saw this scene stopped and rubbed their eyes wildly in shock, unable to believe it.

Just because such a scene is really rare, it’s the first time I’ve seen it.

In the past, Su Muqing was always in front and Fan Li was always behind. Why did they switch positions this time? Did they see it right?!

Su Muqing was not stupid, so he naturally knew that Fan Li did it on purpose.

The inquiring gazes from all around made him feel very uncomfortable, but when he thought about what he was going to do to Fan Li next, he couldn't help feeling a bit guilty, so he gritted his teeth and endured it.

When Fan Li entered the library, he deliberately delayed for a long time.

It was almost evening and the sun was about to set before she prepared to go out. She didn't believe that Su Muqing could resist leaving even though he knew she was deliberately making things difficult for him.

Just then, a gentle voice called her.

"Seventh Senior Sister."

Fan Li turned around and saw Song Xixi, wearing a white Liuxian dress, walking out from behind the bookshelf.

Song Xixi said calmly: "I didn't expect Senior Sister to be so hypocritical. She clearly still has Senior Brother in her heart, but she pretends not to care. Senior Sister used this tactic of retreating to advance really well."

"Seeing that the eldest brother has become so humble for you, you are actually very happy in your heart, right?"

There seemed to be hatred in Song Xixi's eyes, and her expression was gloomy.

Fan Li looked around and saw that there was no one else around. It seemed that he was not going to pretend in front of her anymore.

Fan Li curled the corners of his lips slightly, "I'm happy. Why, you're not happy?"

Song Xixi glared at her: "I knew you still wouldn't let Senior Brother go, you were just pretending before!"

nerve.

Fan Li didn't bother to pay attention to her and turned away.

"Fan Li!" Song Xixi was extremely angry and said anxiously, "Do you know that being with him will only kill him!"

Fan Li stopped, his mind moved, and turned back to look at her, "What do you mean?"

Song Xixi bit her lip and refused to explain why. She just said, "Anyway, you can't be with him!"

Fan Li was keenly aware of something and said, "You seem very confident. Can you predict the future?"

Song Xixi turned her face to the side, her eyes somewhat evasive, "How can I have such a great ability?"

Fan Li stared at her: "Then how do you know I will kill him?"

Song Xixi paused and said, "You are conceited and arrogant, and you always do things without considering the consequences. Sooner or later, you will make a big mistake and implicate Senior Brother."

Fan Li knew that it was impossible to get anything out of her, so she was cautious. She walked forward, stopped in front of Song Xixi, smiled and threatened:

"I don't want to argue with you about this, and you can't irritate me, so stop jumping around in front of me. Also, I want to remind you that we are not the only two here."

"The elders' spiritual awareness is all over the library. Any small action will not escape the elders' eyes. You want to frame someone, but it won't work here."

Song Xixi didn't expect Fan Li to see through her thoughts at once. Her pupils suddenly shrank and she smiled with a sullen face:

"...Senior sister, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant."

Fan Li smiled faintly: "Whether it is true or not, you know it in your heart, goodbye."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Song Xixi's eyes were filled with resentment, and she shouted unwillingly behind him: "Fan Li, remember, my senior brother is mine, don't even think about snatching him away!"

Fan Li waved his hand without turning back.

Why did she have to remind Song Xixi? Of course she had to remind her, otherwise it would be so boring if Song Xixi's true face was revealed so easily.

Fan Li has been thinking about the secret of Song Xixi these days, and finally deduced a possibility that is terrifying when you think about it carefully.

In her previous life, Song Xixi gradually developed into an all-round genius, leaving everyone else far behind. In contrast, Fan Li's several senior brothers were originally the pride of their respective fields, but were eventually left far behind by Song Xixi.

The first one to have problems was the second senior brother Gu Xingyuan. He was a genius alchemist and the heir of Baicaotang, but in the end he couldn't even refine a lowest-grade pill.

Then there was the third senior brother Shen Rong, who was a rare genius talisman practitioner who was expected to become a grandmaster-level figure. But in the end, this person turned out to be Song Xixi.

This strange phenomenon has happened to the other five brothers except the eldest brother.

If you think about it carefully, everything Song Xixi knows has the influence of her senior brothers!

Fan Li was basically certain that Song Xixi was using something to "suck blood", and that the blood she sucked was from her senior brothers!

Because Song Xixi hid her secret very well, she was loved by her fellow seniors, and no one suspected that there was anything wrong with the little junior sister.

Thinking of how miserably they tortured her in her previous life.

Of course Fan Li had to protect Song Xixi's image, otherwise how could she have witnessed them being used as stepping stones by their beloved junior sister, being trampled into the mud and unable to get up forever... But they loved her so much, they must be willing to be stepping stones.

A sly and cruel smile flashed across Fan Li's lips.

Fan Li walked out of the library and when she looked up she saw Su Muqing still standing there waiting for her. The corners of her mouth that were curled up immediately flattened.

"Ari, let's go back."

Su Muqing waited from day till night, carrying two full buckets of water, but there was not a trace of anger or temper on his face.

The man looked gentle, as if nothing unpleasant had ever happened between him and her, and as if they were still as close as before.

Fan Li curled the corners of his mouth, still with a cold face, ignored him, and walked ahead.

Su Muqing's smile faded a little. He stood for a moment, but still followed him despite the cold reception.

Finally returning to Xuanji Peak, outside Fan Li's cave, Su Muqing actually felt a hint of anticipation, and his palms couldn't help but sweat and become sticky.

Fan Li stopped at the door and said without turning his head: "Just put the water on the ground. Brother, you are tired all day, go back and rest."

There was the sound of a wooden barrel falling gently to the ground behind me.

The man's hot breath suddenly approached, and a pair of big hands wrapped around her waist from behind, tightly holding her. His voice was low and hoarse, as if he was begging.

"Ari, let's practice together."
