Accompanied by Fei Nan, Gu Yangyang walked for a while.

It was not until Fei Nan stopped consciously that she realized that it was Ji Xiao who came to pick her up this time.

Knowing that they would probably not give up until no one had a turn, Gu Yangyang had no choice but to accept it.

She took the initiative to walk over, patted Ji Xiao on the shoulder, said "Let's go", and walked forward on her own.

Fei Nan stood there and watched for a while. She crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows, looking at Ji Xiao leisurely. The upturned corners of her mouth showed her gloating.

You have a blockhead, you deserve it!

She proudly lifted her tail high and walked away with her waist twisted.

Little did she know that not long after she left, Ji Xiao, whom she had originally looked down upon, took actual action.

He turned around and caught up with the girl who had walked ahead. He stretched out his large, clean hand in front of her and spoke in a calm voice, as if he was just saying that the weather was very nice today:

"Senior sister, can I hold your hand?"

Gu Yangyang paused and looked up at him.

His usually calm and reserved face was faintly flushed, and his dark eyes were bright as snow.

Clearly he was asking a question, but his tone was that of a declarative sentence.

For the first time, he showed an edge as sharp as the sword in his hand. He no longer took second place, but confidently and frankly put forward his demands!

Gu Yangyang always thought that he was the easiest one to talk to because he could always control himself very well, so at this time she was even thinking about how to refuse.

But before she could think of an appropriate way, her hand was already wrapped by the man's dry and broad palm!

With a tone that sounded like a statement, he made the choice for her in a straightforward manner.

"They all held hands, but I didn't." He added, and there was even a hint of grievance in his tone that was easily detectable.

Gu Yangyang: “…”

Ji Xiao held her little hand and walked forward, his steps were neither wide nor narrow, just right to match her pace.

"When I was little, I loved holding my mother's hand and walking along the riverside path."

After walking for a while, Ji Xiao suddenly spoke out.

He looked ahead, as if recalling: "My mother was with me for only three years. She died of the plague when I was three years old. After she passed away, there was no one else in the family except me."

"The plague was raging at the time, and almost everyone in the village died. Only a few were lucky enough to escape infection. I was one of them. Later, an elder from the Chongming Immortal Sect came down the mountain to help the people. He saw that I had an innate swordsmanship, so he took me back. Since then, I have become a disciple of the third elder and one of Chongming's disciples."

"With the help of the sword heart, I can achieve twice the result with half the effort in practicing the sword. But everything has two sides. Although the sword heart is good, it will make people more and more like a heartless block in the later stages of practice. They can only follow the rules and stick to the rules, but they don't understand human feelings at all..."

"After being beaten by the head of the sect, I fled to a cave. At that time, my sword heart and sword were both broken. If I wanted to survive, I had to rebuild... Fortunately, although the process was painful, it allowed me to truly merge with the sword heart and the sword. I no longer have to worry about the side effects of the sword heart..."

As he spoke, he raised the corners of his lips for a rare moment.

Thinking about it carefully, he had many blessings in disguise because of the people around him...

Gu Yangyang didn't expect that he had such an experience in his childhood, and couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that people who practice cultivation always speak frankly...

"So what are you going to do in the future? Master is building the Chongming Immortal Sect. I believe that the elders and disciples will come back in the future. Will you continue to stay here?" she asked.

Ji Xiao listened to her voice and lowered his eyes.

The place he wanted to go was far away, and it was not easy to get there...

"Maybe he will stay in Chongming Immortal Sect, or he may go out to continue his training."

It’s hard to predict what will happen in the future. Gu Yangyang nodded and didn’t say anything more.

The two continued to walk forward until a tall and scattered red figure appeared in front of them, and Ji Xiao stopped.

Wanqi Xiu leaned lazily against a tree, looking sideways at the two of them, his gaze resting on their clasped hands, his eyes heavy and cold.

He slowly raised the corners of his lips, with a hint of sarcasm, and said to Ji Xiao: "It's none of your business, go back."

The corners of Ji Xiao's lips that had just been raised had now straightened. He held Gu Yangyang's hand and did not let go as easily as the previous few people did.

Wanqi Xiu was getting impatient waiting, his brows slightly furrowed, and he looked impatient.

He licked his back teeth with the tip of his tongue, suppressing the violent emotions in his heart...

There was a scarlet light flashing in his eyes a few times, and his figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye he appeared in front of Gu Yangyang and the other person.

The demonic energy in his body was rampant, condensing into a sharp cone and stabbing straight towards Ji Xiao's wrist!

"call--"

The sharp sword energy expanded from within the body and collided with the demonic energy, causing a storm immediately where the three people were standing!

Ji Xiaoru let go of Wanqi Xiu's hand as he wished, and Wanqi Xiu was too lazy to care about it anymore. After all, he didn't want to waste any more time...

Without saying a word, he grabbed Gu Yangyang's hand that Ji Xiao had held, lifted up his robe, and wiped her hand carefully...

After wiping it, he wrapped the little hand into his palm with a satisfied look, fitting it tightly!

Led by Wanqi Xiu, the two of them walked faster and soon disappeared from Ji Xiao's sight.

Only when he could no longer see the person behind him did Wanqi Xiu slow down his pace and walked leisurely with Gu Yangyang, wishing he could walk until dark!

This road leads to the back mountain, and the two are getting closer and closer to the entrance of the back mountain...

"The Demon Realm is too far away from the Chongming Immortal Sect."

Wanqi Xiu said this out of the blue.

Gu Yangyang looked at him in confusion, not understanding what he meant by suddenly saying this.

Wanqi Xiu reached out and pinched her cheek while she looked at him with doubt. He was in a good mood and did not show any impatience as before.

"Fortunately, ghost peanuts don't choose where to grow. As long as they are given enough spiritual energy or blood to nourish them, they will grow well..."

Wanqi Xiu said this and took Gu Yangyang through the back mountain barrier and into the back mountain.

Coming here again, Gu Yangyang felt a completely different feeling.

It was night when I came last time, but it is daytime this time.

The sun shines on the ground, which is covered with layers of dead leaves, and when you step on them, they make a "crunching" sound...

The wind in the forest was very gentle, blowing in small gusts, and occasionally there was a sound similar to the cry of a deer, ethereal and distant...

Among all these, the most attractive one is naturally the large field of flowers as bright as blood and as hot as fire displayed in front of Gu Yangyang!

The wind blew from above, causing countless flowers to sway, like a dazzling red galaxy...
