Gu Yangyang was shocked.
She suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him.
Her voice was still a little shaky: "You, you know...what method?"
At this moment, her heart was in unprecedented chaos.
My heart seemed to be raised to my throat in an instant.
Why did Wen Xia know so much, why did he tell her, and what was his purpose...
She felt that the world was becoming increasingly incomprehensible to her, and everyone around her seemed to be wearing a mask.
But she, with her simple mind, could only see the most superficial mask.
It was hard to tell whether it was fear or panic, Gu Yangyang just felt a very urgent appeal suddenly arise in her heart——
She wanted to understand it all, to understand why it was her, why she was here, why the people she met were always so strange…
These mixed emotions surged in her heart, but her face did not show any flaws for the time being because of surprise.
The young man seemed to be certain that she would agree to his conditions, and continued, "Senior Sister, the Ice Soul Sword is the master's life weapon. Even if you want to get it, it won't be that easy."
"But I can help you. I can even accompany you into the Jinlin Palace. All you need is to come and watch me compete..."
Gu Yangyang looked at him, and he also looked at her with a smile.
He waited patiently for the girl's answer.
Gu Yangyang lowered her head slightly, thinking.
She must go to Jinlin Palace to try her luck, and she must also get the Bingpo Sword...
She could feel that the boy had no ill will towards her...
Just to watch a competition, this exchange condition is already very cost-effective...
"Okay, I agree to your terms." Gu Yangyang raised his head and looked at the person in front of him firmly, "I will go to watch your competition, but you have to tell me how to get the Ice Soul Sword."
After getting a satisfactory answer, the boy raised his lips, his face bright and sunny.
"Of course. Senior Sister, when have I ever lied to you..."
Just to take a look, even if it's just this, that man won't be able to bear it...
......
Since she had promised Wen Xia, Gu Yangyang did what she said.
After leaving Fei Nan in Chonghua Palace, she rushed to Jianfeng before the competition began.
She was wearing a red dress and stood out in the crowd.
The moment she appeared, two pairs of eyes fell precisely on her.
Compared to the previous sect competition, the small competition is obviously much smaller, but it can also make the disciples very excited.
Except for the horn that has not been blown, golden and red flags are also planted everywhere on Jianfeng.
The competition had not officially begun yet, and the disciples were standing scattered on the viewing platform.
This competition is still presided over by the four elders.
The man stood on the competition stage and read out the competition rules one by one. His voice as loud as a bell spread throughout Jianfeng.
Hesitant and worried, Gu Yangyang stayed in the shadows the whole time.
She thought that this would hide her figure, but she didn't know that anyone who wanted to find her would always be able to find her in a moment...
"Why is Senior Sister here?"
A deep voice sounded from behind her.
Gu Yangyang was startled and turned around.
The young man was dressed in a dark robe, holding a long sword of the same color as he looked at her.
The dark eyes seemed to have something more than before, so deep that it seemed unfathomable.
"I, let me take a look..." she said.
"I remember that the headmaster did not allow Senior Sister to come."
Ji Xiao walked closer. After not seeing him for a while, he inexplicably felt a little oppressive.
Keeping her head up to look at him made the girl's neck a little tired.
Gu Yangyang simply lowered her head and focused her attention on her toes.
"Master is in retreat, I came here secretly, I shouldn't be discovered..."
Her voice was very soft, as if she was answering the young man's question, but also as if she was comforting herself.
Ji Xiao walked up to her, looked at her sideways, and stopped talking.
He thought she wouldn't come.
I didn't expect that he would resist...
His eyes were a little deep for a moment, with some very complicated emotions surging in them.
I don’t know what he was thinking of, but his eyes suddenly lightened and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
"Ji Xiao, are you healed?"
Seeing that the young man's face was still a little pale, Gu Yangyang couldn't help but ask.
She felt the person next to her pause, as if his body tensed up.
"I didn't expect that my senior sister would care about me..."
The whispered words came softly, the voice was so quiet that Gu Yangyang couldn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"
The smile on his lips disappeared instantly. Ji Xiao was silent for a moment, adjusted his state, and spoke slowly:
"It's all right now. Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister."
Gu Yangyang didn't notice his subtle change and just nodded.
After all, the other party's injury was partly due to his own fault. Just as he was thinking about whether he should send some pills to the other party, another clear and cheerful voice interrupted him.
"Senior Sister, you are here! Why didn't you come to see me when you came?"
As if he didn't notice that there was another person standing next to the girl, Wen Xia walked over with a smile on his face and directly occupied another seat next to the girl.
Gu Yangyang came here just for the "method" that the other party mentioned.
Seeing him now, she couldn't hold back her anxiety, so she moved closer and whispered:
"When will you tell me the solution?"
Wen Xia kept smiling, he really liked the way the girl approached him actively.
While keeping the secret, he glanced at the young man inconspicuously.
Ji Xiao looked straight ahead, his eyes didn't even flicker, as if he didn't care what happened on their side at all...
Wen Xia's eyes were distracted and he sneered in his heart.
Haha, you are really good at pretending.
Just like that man, so annoying...
He suddenly raised his hand and pressed Gu Yangyang's shoulder, saying gently: "Senior sister, don't worry. I will tell you the plan after the competition is over."
Gu Yangyang was slightly stunned when she saw how confident he was.
She hadn't thought there was such a thing as a "plan".
She thought that as long as Wen Xia told her the method, she could implement it herself, but now it seems that her actions may not be completely concealed...
As if the deepest secret in her heart was about to be discovered, she was silent for a while, gritted her teeth, and said, "Okay."
No matter what, she couldn't back down.
Wen Xia, who had a grasp of all the girl's reactions, had already expected that she would agree.
He smiled, but did not show any particular joy.
After he left temporarily, Ji Xiao, who was standing next to Gu Yangyang, heard a faint voice from above his head:
"Senior Sister, did you and Wen Xia reach a deal?"
