Chapter 39



Xie Changji said nothing.

He looked at her eyes without any grudge, and was instantly reminded of the way his senior sister Hu Mian looked when he first saw her.

She was very nervous that day. When Hu Mian appeared, she stood in front of him and warned him: "I'm telling you not to mess around. No matter how beautiful she is, you can't touch her."

Hu Mian blinked her beautiful eyes when she heard this, and seemed a little aggrieved: "Then...then can I have a drink with him?"

"No," Hua Xiangwan refused, "You can only talk to him."

"That……"

"Talk through me!"

Hearing this, Hu Mian choked for a moment. After a moment, she seemed unhappy and waved her hands and said, "Okay, okay, let's go eat. I won't provoke him. Isn't he just a little bit good-looking? What's so great about that?"

Hu Mian twisted her waist and walked away. Xie Changji and Hua Xiangwan walked behind Hu Mian. Xie Changji hesitated for a moment before reminding her, "Your senior sister might be unhappy if you talk to her like this."

"If she's happy, then I'm not happy."

Hua Xiangwan answered immediately, but Xie Changji didn't understand: "Why?"

"I hold you in my heart, so no one can get involved." Hua Xiangwan glanced at him, "Not even my senior sister."

Keep it in mind, so no one can get involved.

He knew that was in the past, two hundred years ago.

Yet he always felt vaguely confused, as if the past two hundred years had always been related.

He looked into the other person's expectant and clear eyes silently, unable to utter a word.

Seeing Xie Changji silent, Hua Xiangwan felt inexplicably guilty. Thinking about his temper, she turned to Yun Qingxu and said, "How about we sneak in first and see if there are any other opportunities?"

"I'll go."

Xie Changji suddenly spoke up. Hua Xiangwan and Yun Qingxu turned around at the same time. Hua Xiangwan looked at him in surprise: "Are you willing?"

"You come with me."

Xie Changji raised his eyes and said, "Tell me one thing when you come back."

"OK."

Hua Xiangwan happily agreed. She knew that he was always sensible and would not ask any difficult questions. She could lie if he asked her. She quickly said, "Then let's go in first. It would be best if you could drug her." Then, Hua Xiangwan handed a packet of drugs to Xie Changji. "If she is too alert and there is no chance, then..."

"Then you just need to hold her back and distract her," Yun Qingxu took out a paper tube, "I have some special drugs here, but it will only work if she doesn't notice it in advance."

"Um."

Xie Changji nodded, hid the sword in his Qiankun bag, reached out and pulled Hua Xiangwan over, turned around and walked out: "Let's go."

As for the brothels in these small towns, the three of them simply used invisibility talismans and entered the brothels openly.

When he entered the room, he saw the butler leading Gu Xing upstairs. Hua Xiangwan used his spiritual sense to roughly explore and saw a group of people preparing in the backyard and coming this way, shouting that they wanted to receive the distinguished guest and not to neglect him.

"To the backyard."

Hua Xiangwan pulled Xie Changji and led him and Yun Qingxu to the backyard.

When they arrived at the backyard, the three of them each captured a person, stripped him of his clothes and changed into them, then quietly followed the team and walked towards the solitary room together.

Xie Changji changed into the clothes of a waiter and wore a veil on his face; Hua Xiangwan transformed into a musician and followed Xie Changji; although Yun Qingxu had changed, he was afraid that Gu Xing would find out, so he just pretended to be a servant seeing someone off, and waited at the door after the two of them entered, ready to listen to what was happening at any time.

The three of them divided the work among themselves. When they arrived at the door of Gu Xing's room, the steward pushed the door open. Hua Xiangwan and Yun Qingxu nodded, and followed the others into the room.

Gu Xing was lying in the room, talking to someone beside him. Everyone knelt on the ground. Gu Xing turned his head and raised his hand: "Get up."

"Master Guxing, this is our building's best merchandise tonight, please take a look." The steward walked forward and knelt beside Guxing, then turned around and said to everyone, "Take off your veil and raise your head."

After hearing this, Xie Changji, like everyone else, took off his veil and raised his head.

His eyes were cold and clear, and the moment he raised his head, everyone was instantly suppressed.

Everyone stared at him blankly. The butler was also confused. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Gu Xing sitting up straight. She stared at Xie Changji for a long time, smiled sweetly, and raised her hand and nodded: "It's him."

The butler was stunned for a moment, then Gu Xing threw out a high-grade spirit stone and waved to Xie Changji with a smile, "Beauty, come here."

Hua Xiangwan frowned slightly as she looked at Gu Xing's rather playful eyes.

She always felt that the person in front of her was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't confirm it.

When the steward saw Lingshi, he immediately grabbed Lingshi to express his gratitude. Gu Xing waved his hands and ordered, "Leave a few people to sing and dance to entertain us, and the rest can go back."

"Yes," the steward said hurriedly, "Your Excellency has a good time tonight."

With that, the steward led his men to retreat. Hua Xiangwan glanced around, followed the musicians beside him and began to play the piano, watching the actors sing and dance.

A barrier was set up high up where Xie Changji and Gu Xing were. She could only see their movements but couldn't hear their words clearly. She didn't dare to look too obviously, so she just took a quick glance and then began to observe the structure of the house.

Xie Changji sat next to Gu Xing, who was leaning to the side, with his red dress half-open, and said with a smile, "Young Master, you look so handsome, but so boring. Did you just get the job?"

Xie Changji didn't say anything. Gu Xing tilted his head and asked, "Why don't you say anything?"

As he spoke, Gu Xing stood up and approached Xie Changji: "Since you came here, has no one taught you how to please a woman?"

Xie Changji paused and slowly raised his eyes.

Gu Xing looked at her, sighed, and after two "tsk tsk" sounds, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity to have nothing but a shell."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and touched Xie Changji's face, and lowered her voice: "No one wants to blaspheme the gods and Buddhas, everyone just wants the gods and Buddhas to be pulled down from the mortal world. This young man," Gu Xing pointed to the dancers next to him, "if you want to arouse people's desire, you must first have desire yourself. Let people see the existence of this desire, and then they will be moved and excited by it."

Xie Changji looked in the direction Gu Xing pointed, and saw the actors clapping their hands and dancing to the song. There was naked desire in the actors' eyes, but his smile turned this desire into flattery. It was not aggressive at all, but instead became particularly alluring.

Xie Changji looked at the other person seriously. Gu Xing raised his hand, threw the spirit stone, and called out, "Take it off."

The actor's smile suddenly widened, and every movement was done to show off the lines and strength of his body as much as possible. Then he took off his clothes one by one.

Xie Changji glanced at Hua Xiangwan beside him and saw that she was also looking at the actor. He withdrew his gaze without leaving a trace and looked at the person in the middle who was taking off his clothes piece by piece.

It was not until the last piece that Gu Xing threw a spirit stone and told the actor to stop: "Alright, take off the last piece in your room."

The actor quickly knelt down to express his gratitude. Gu Xing turned to look at Xie Changji and said, "Do you understand?"

Xie Changji withdrew his gaze and did not respond.

Gu Xing picked up the wine glass and couldn't help laughing: "You still can't learn this?"

"To use beauty to please others is just empty desire, not joy." Xie Changji said in a flat voice.

"But apart from this appearance," Gu Xing said with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, "what else can make you popular?"

Xie Changji turned his eyes and looked over. Gu Xing was shaking his wine glass and said nonchalantly: "You can't give me warmth, you can't give me preference, you can't give me the most important position in my heart, you are boring and dull, you have no interest at all, you are as bland as boiled water, if you can't even give me lust, what do you have that is worthy of a woman's love?"

"Whether you like it or not," Xie Changji picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip, "It's not for you to judge."

"oh?"

Gu Xing chuckled: "Now that you're here, you still dare to talk to me about her love?"

Xie Changji paused.

The opponent suddenly attacked, and Xie Changji raised his hand and grabbed the opponent's wrist. Gu Xing seemed to be pulled by him and fell towards him softly. Xie Changji stepped back subconsciously, but Gu Xing hooked his belt, walked in front of him, and whispered: "Does she care?"

Xie Changji froze in his tracks. Gu Xing kept a finger's distance from him, but only the two of them knew the distance. To others, the two of them were almost touching each other. Gu Xing looked up at him and said, "Don't you know her temper? Do you dare to look back at her?"

Xie remained silent for a long time. He said in a dry voice, "I don't care."

"oh?"

Gu Xing smiled and repeated: "Don't care?"

"She said that year that she just wanted to be with me, she just wanted to be by my side, as long as I belonged to her, as long as she was the only one in my heart." Xie Changji repeated what she said that year and lowered his eyes, "I can do that too."

Gu Xing was stunned.

“I can go wherever she goes.”

"I can accept anything she can accept."

"It doesn't matter if she doesn't care," Xie Changji said softly, "I can wait forever."

"Xie Changji," Gu Xing frowned, "You are forcing it."

"Back then," Xie Changji raised his eyes and looked at Gu Xing, "Didn't she also force it?"

"Sister," Xie Changji said calmly, as if he was a seeker on the road to martyrdom, "I am just walking her path again."

Experience the pain she experienced back then.

Follow the footsteps of the past step by step to understand her two hundred years.

He is cold-hearted and cannot understand the love and hate in this world.

He couldn't understand why she jumped from the realm of life and death, nor could he understand why she struggled for two hundred years, so he decided to walk her path.

She was his way, he sought her and followed her.

"What's wrong with that?"

Why did Kunxuzi, Hua Xiangwan, and this old friend from two hundred years ago all want him to go back to Yunlai, back to the realm of life and death?

If he could go back, how could he get out of the wind and snow in the realm of life and death?

"Xie Changji," Gu Xing frowned, "She doesn't like you and can't be exclusive to you. You are now forcing yourself to be by her side only because you are suitable, but you are not the only suitable person in the world."

"Then I shall be the only one in the world."

Xie Changji spoke calmly, and Gu Xing was stunned.

After a moment, she seemed to find it funny: "Do you dare to say this to Ah Wan?"

"Speaking or not speaking," Xie Changji seemed puzzled, "what's the difference?"

Gu Xing shook her head, as if she wanted to say something, but at that moment, she suddenly realized something was wrong, and she made a prompt decision, almost instinctively threw out a scroll, and jumped in!

Xie Changji was prepared and moved even faster. He grabbed Gu Xing and pulled her out to prevent her from entering the painting.

Gu Xing threw a painting out, and a giant beast appeared in front of her. She grabbed the beast's tail and shouted, "Run!"

The giant beast rushed madly into the scroll, but Xie Changji was caught off guard and pulled into the painting.

Seeing Xie Changji entering the painting, Hua Xiangwan shouted anxiously: "Xie Changji!"

As he said this, he rushed over together with Yun Qingxu who rushed in from the side. Yun Qingxu grabbed Hua Xiangwan, Hua Xiangwan grabbed Xie Changji, and the three of them were pulled together and dragged into the painting!

The four of them were dragged hand in hand by the giant beast and rushed into the painting of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. Gu Xing looked back at the three of them and cursed them. She called out to the giant beast in front of her: "Go!"

The giant beast received the order, turned around and bit Hua Xiangwan. Xie Changji let go instantly and turned around with a sword. Gu Xing immediately turned into a stream of light and drilled into the hundreds of ghosts that were walking at night.

When Hua Xiangwan saw her running away, he let go of Xie Changji and chased after her. Xie Changji frowned and said anxiously, "Hua Xiangwan!"

Hua Xiangwan didn't hear what he said and rushed into the group of ghosts after Gu Xing.

Xie Changji and Yun Qingxu followed closely behind. Gu Xing threw the scroll in his hand at them frantically. In an instant, countless ghosts and monsters rushed towards the three of them. Xie Changji's long sword was as sharp as a rainbow, and he chopped up any ghosts and killed any monsters he saw.

Hua Xiangwan followed the path he had opened up and walked forward. Gu Xing had just escaped for a moment when she grabbed him by the sleeve. Hua Xiangwan pulled him hard and shouted, "Let me see..."

Before he could finish his words, she pulled off Gu Xing's shoulders, revealing the cassia flowers painted on his shoulders.

Hua Xiangwan was stunned for a moment, and at that moment, Gu Xing kicked Hua Xiangwan. Hua Xiangwan reacted immediately and raised his hand to slap him!

Gu Xing saw that she was not brave enough to take the attack head-on, so he could only dodge it by leaning to the side. He pressed her hand and said anxiously, "Don't push me!"

Hua Xiangwan ignored her, raised his hand with a cold expression and tied her hands behind her back, and the fairy rope went up.

Gu Xing noticed that her body was becoming weaker and weaker. She gritted her teeth, pulled out a piece of scrap iron, and hit Hua Xiangwan in the chest with it!

The broken iron rushed towards him with a familiar smell. Hua Xiangwan suddenly opened his eyes wide and felt the blood in his body boiling. His heart suddenly hurt.

Her hand loosened, and Gu Xing took the opportunity to take out a scroll and jumped inside. Hua Xiangwan screamed, "Xie Changji!"

A man in white stepped forward instantly and followed Gu Xing into the painting.

Hua Xiangwan took a step back and someone held her up from behind. Hua Xiangwan was shaking all over, the blood in her body was flowing wildly, severe pain was running through her body, her face was pale, she gritted her teeth, and she had no strength at all.

Yun Qingxu supported her and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Hua Xiangwan was speechless, and Yun Qingxu immediately took her pulse. After a moment, his face changed drastically: "The poison has taken effect."

Hua Xiangwan trembled and raised her eyes when she heard this. Yun Qingxu lowered his head and said, "I'll take you out first."

"Xue..." Hua Xiangwan's face turned pale, "Xue Zidan?"

Yun Qingxu paused, looking a little embarrassed, and whispered, "It's me. I'll heal you first."

As he spoke, he quickly sealed Hua Xiangwan's meridians, picked her up and laid her down. A light gate appeared in front of them, and he walked out while holding her in his arms.

When they got out, they came to the original brothel. Yun Qingxu... or rather, Xue Zidan, quickly went out with Hua Xiangwan in his arms, threw out a spirit stone to ask for a private room, and then hurried in.

Hua Xiangwan was held in his arms, her body began to freeze, and she was trembling all over: "You...what are you doing..."

"As soon as the news of your wedding came, I knew you were going to take action." Xue Zidan explained quickly, put her on the bed, set up a barrier, and skillfully pulled open her clothes. "Once the Demon Lord's Blood Order is activated, it will speed up your poison. I was worried so I hurried over. My identity is not suitable, Yun Qingxu's identity is easy to use, and," Xue Zidan glanced at Hua Xiangwan with a bit of sarcasm, "I heard that Xie Changji is such a person, so I wanted to see if you would fall into the same trap twice."

Hua Xiangwan lay in his arms, dazed and in pain. She looked up at his face, her mind hazy.

Actually, Xue Zidan shouldn't be here.

She thought.

After all, no matter how others felt that she was using him, he knew it in his heart.

What stands between them is never exploitation, but debt.

He secretly healed her injuries for two hundred years, from the time she went to Yaozong to seek medical treatment, when they fell in love, and even when she later got engaged and separated from Wen Shaoqing, he had always persisted as a doctor.

Now that he heard that she had participated in the Demon Lord Trial, it was not surprising that he came from the Medicine Sect.

Her thoughts were wandering as Xue Zidan kicked open the door, put her on the bed, and set up a barrier.

He skillfully opened her clothes and stabbed her shoulders and chest with the needle. The cut on her chest had turned black, but it was much lighter than before.

Xue Zidan asked calmly, "Who gave you the blood transfusion?"

"Wha…what?"

While Xue Zidan was giving her acupuncture, Hua Xiangwan felt a little dazed and couldn't hear what he was saying.

Xue Zidan glanced at her, knowing that he couldn't get anything out of her, so he lowered his head and carefully forced the poison out of his chest, then quickly applied the medicine to her. After applying the medicine, he looked at the shivering Hua Xiangwan, hesitated for a moment, and finally lay down on the bed.

He held her hand and transferred his spiritual power into her body. After the spiritual power circulated for two small cycles, the ice on Hua Xiangwan's body dissipated.

Hua Xiangwan slowly opened her eyes. Xue Zidan sensed the fluctuations of spiritual power around him. He immediately turned over from the bed, and then returned to his previous upright and elegant appearance as "Yun Qingxu". He opened the door with some tiredness.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Xie Changji standing at the door.

He held the sword in his hand and looked at him quietly.

The cold wind blew, and Xie Changji's voice was cold: "What are you doing?"

Xue Zidan showed a surprised expression, and then seemed to react, and hurriedly said: "Senior, you are finally back. Just now, Young Master Hua seemed to be poisoned, and her body was covered with ice. Fortunately, I was able to combine my mind skills with hers, and I helped her heal her and remove the poison. Now she is safe."

Hearing this, Xie Changji remained calm and only repeated: "The mind and method are compatible?"

"Yun Qingxu" lowered his head, seeming a little embarrassed: "I'm not going to hide it from you, Senior. The Dao Sect's mental method is similar to the Tianjian Sect's. I have also studied the Tianjian Sect's mental method and made some improvements on the two sects' mental methods. Therefore...if you need it, I can help you a little."

As he spoke, "Yun Qingxu" looked back at the room and said, "This poison needs to be removed in three steps. In the next three days, I may have to help Master Hua. I hope you can..."

"Yun Qingxu" bowed respectfully: "Excuse me."
