When Tu Nian woke up again, he was lying on the soft couch in the inn. When he opened his eyes, he felt as if he was in another world.
When she realized she was still alive, her first reaction was to touch her Qiankun bag and Bixuan sword. When she touched her empty waist, she sat up in shock.
"Are you looking for these, girl?"
"who!"
Only then did Tu Nian realize that there was someone sitting in the room. The man was leaning against the table and drinking tea leisurely. The Qiankun bag and the Bixuan sword were lying on the seat next to him.
Tu Nianqiang quickly picked out a few talismans from the mustard seeds, dragged his aching body and looked at him coldly, his vigilance quickly increasing.
Watching the somewhat irritated Tu Nian with great interest, Nie Yanchen leisurely sipped his tea and said with a smile, "I saved the girl's life, but she wants to be on guard against me. It's really disheartening."
Tu Nian reacted quickly too, and after a moment of hesitation he remembered the Nether Wolf from last night.
Frowning slightly, she spoke suspiciously, "Those wolf demons..."
Nie Yanchen remained silent, still drinking tea, his temperament very noble.
Tu Nian looked him up and down.
He was wearing expensive clothes, had a handsome face, and had an elegant and reserved air about him. If one had to describe him, one could only say he was a scholar in white clothes, not a monk or warrior.
Shaking his head, Tu Nianyi said simply, "I don't believe it."
But his momentum was restrained. He put the talisman in his arms and got out of bed.
Nie Yanchen lost his composure in a second and nearly burned his tongue.
Putting down the teacup, he tapped the table with his fingertips and said, "If I hadn't intervened last night, the young lady would have been eaten by the wolf demon with her cultivation level alone."
After saying that, he mentioned what happened when he rescued Tu Nian last night.
Tu Nian still had some self-awareness, and he believed most of what he said after he heard it, but he still quickly put away the Qiankun bag and the Bixuan sword.
"I wouldn't dare to say anything fatal."
Tu Nian muttered softly, glancing at the brand new clothes on his body, the implication of his words was self-evident.
"That was changed for you by the girl in the store!"
Nie Yanchen was furious and couldn't help cursing, "Although Yuzhe is not as good as others, he is still one of the best in terms of strength. How could he teach such a stupid disciple like you..."
Before he finished speaking, a emerald green sword suddenly appeared at the side of his neck. He looked up and saw Tu Nian's alert and serious face, looking at him coldly.
"Do you recognize me?"
Holding the Bixuan Sword, Tu Nian asked.
Nie Yanchen was surprised by her reaction, but he didn't get angry. He just slowly pushed Bixuan's sword away and said, "I don't recognize you, but I should recognize Yuzhe's sword."
Tu Nianmo.
Indeed, as the best sword in the world, Yuzhe's sword is naturally famous.
Seeing Nie Yanchen's calm expression, it didn't seem like he was pretending. Tu Nian took back Bixuan with a little embarrassment and tried to make excuses for herself, "Girls should always be more cautious when they go out."
The main thing is that five kinds of rare treasures and a Qiankun bag were taken away. There is no guarantee that Yu Zhe will not lose his life because of leaving the sect.
"No problem."
Rubbing his neck nonchalantly, Nie Yanchen lowered his gaze to the Bixuan Sword in her hand. "I've always heard that Yuzhe has a beloved disciple. Now it seems that it's you, young lady?"
After all this, Tu Nian knew that he owed him money, so he didn't act arrogantly.
He sat down casually, grabbed a cold bun on the table, and ate it while saying, "The one you're talking about is called Su Youzhi, not me... Oh, and it's stuffed with meat."
What a pleasant surprise, two more.
Then he remembered that the bun seemed to be untouched on the table. He hesitated for a moment and raised it to Nie Yanchen, "Want one?"
Nie Yanchen was amused by her and shook his head, "I have already practiced fasting, and this is prepared for you."
"You're a really nice person."
Tu Nian wrinkled his nose and praised him, but his mouth never stopped talking.
Looking at her youthful profile from the side, Nie Yanchen couldn't help but recall the scene when they first met yesterday.
After discussing the training matters with those from Yuqing Sect, he originally planned to return to the sect directly. However, when he went out, he ran into a girl of fifteen or sixteen who was hiding stealthily halfway up the mountain. Not only was she holding a rootless lotus in her hand, she also had a jade-shaped sword on her waist.
Out of curiosity, he followed them, and later saved Tu Nian from the wolf pack.
Why did she go down Qingyuan Mountain alone at such a young age, and why did she have Yuzhe's sword?
Nie Yanchen was very interested.
After pouring a cup of tea for Tu Nian, he said, "Excuse me, young lady, what is your name?"
Tu Nian took it and drank it all in one gulp. "My last name is Tu, and my given name is Nian. What's yours?"
Nie Yanchen smiled and said, "My last name is Nie. If Miss Tu is willing, you can call me Brother Nie."
“…”
He's so shameless that he's thinking about seniority after just treating everyone to a meal.
Tu Nian laughed dryly twice, but didn't call him Brother Nie after all.
At this moment, a familiar hawking voice came from outside the window, sounding so friendly that Tu Nian couldn't help but let his eyes wander, and he had the urge to go out and take a look.
Noticing her gaze, Nie Yanchen asked, "Miss, do you want to return to the sect?"
Tu Nian's thoughts drifted to the candied haws and crab shell yellow on the street, which smelled so good.
When she heard the question, she didn't react immediately and blurted out, "Zong has escaped, there's no way back."
When she came to her senses, she realized that she had said the wrong thing and glanced at Nie Yanchen faintly.
Nie Yanchen suffered innocently and wanted to explain: "I just asked casually..."
"Let's take a break."
Tu Nian curled his lips, "You're so shameless, you're just trying to take advantage of underage girls."
Looking at it this way, this person is even more shameless.
Unfair!
Nie Yanchen had no way to defend himself and felt extremely wronged. Just as he was about to say something else, Tu Nian suddenly moved closer to his face, looking fierce but weak.
The clean yet charming eyes suddenly widened, which scared him completely.
"Girl, respect yourself!"
"From your sister."
Seeing him turn his head away narcissistically, Tu Nian sighed softly and said, "Since I have already left the sect, I definitely don't want to go back. Therefore, please keep your mouth shut about Master Nie meeting me."
"Of course, you saved me, and I have to repay you for that."
After saying this, without waiting for his reaction, Tu Nian generously placed some Spirit Boosting Pills and Refining Stones, as well as several Vajra Talismans from Tushan, on the table. "Right now, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I can't calculate the details of your favor. You can keep these. If we are destined to meet again in the future, I will repay you double."
As for why she didn't take the hawkbill grass, firstly, it would be a crime to possess a treasure, and secondly, she couldn't bear to part with it.
Heart still pounding, Nie Yanchen looked at the table filled with "favors" and subconsciously asked, "What are you so anxious about, young lady?"
"Don't ask about girls' affairs."
In order to repay the favor, Tu Nian didn't say any more words to Nie Yanchen. She picked up the Qiankun bag and left. The appearance of this man made her realize that society was very dark and she should join the sect as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if the petty Su Youzhi really comes looking for her one day, she will be torn to pieces.
Thinking of this, Tu Nian's feet quickened.
Looking at her back as she left in a hurry, Nie Yanchen misunderstood a lot of things for a moment.
Does this girl really think he is a bad guy? Should he explain?
Nie Yanchen was extremely conflicted.
He should have returned to the sect long ago.
But if this gets out...
Nie Yanchen thought about it and decided that he still had to save face, so he gritted his teeth, gathered his energy, and chased out the door.
"Girl, wait for me!"
