Li Sisui was quick-witted and full of vigor, but before he could reach the gate, he saw a red glow in the distance, standing proudly. Instantly, the surrounding scenery paled in comparison. Li Sisui took a closer look and his heart skipped a beat. Wasn't this Leng Rushuang, who had been in seclusion for a long time?
Why did they leave without any warning? Weren't we supposed to go our separate ways? Who are they waiting for? Could it be him?
Li Sisui was filled with questions, but because he had made an appointment with Jue Mingzi, he couldn't change the location. He could only grit his teeth and continue walking, pretending not to see anything, hoping that Jue Mingzi would arrive soon...
"Why didn't you say anything before you left?"
Didn't you specifically tell me before you went into seclusion that I shouldn't bother you even if the sky were to fall? Why are you asking me about it now?
"Uh... It was a spur-of-the-moment decision. I didn't expect you to have emerged from seclusion. Where are you headed?"
"I’m waiting for you!"
"Wait for me? Wait for me... for what?"
"Waiting for you means, of course, I'll go with you!"
? ? ?
Li Sisui looked at Leng Rushuang, who suddenly turned around. Her face was veiled in red gauze, and her eyes, as bright as stars, stared straight at him. The alluring curves of her body, faintly visible behind the veil, made his blood boil. This was the first time he had met Leng Rushuang's gaze, and he couldn't even hold it for a second before quickly giving in. He dared not look directly at her again, lowered his head, and murmured softly:
"Where are we going together...?"
Wherever you go, I'll go too!
For the first time, Li Sisui detected a hint of amusement in Leng Rushuang's cold voice, and he couldn't help but smile as well, unconsciously scratching his head and saying:
"I'm going to settle accounts with Shenxiao Palace. Are you going too?"
“Go! This is my first time here, it's completely unfamiliar. I feel much more at ease with you leading the way. I'll leave once I sense the mountain-ascending formation. Until then, I'll have to bother you a lot more…”
Is this even human language?
Why are you suddenly being so polite?
Li Sisui was momentarily taken aback and felt flattered. Before, he had been calling her a good-for-nothing and an idiot. This change in attitude was like a Thomas Flair. Was it really necessary to do this? Was it the protagonist's halo that was working?
No way?
If the protagonist's halo really had this effect, wouldn't he have been able to do whatever he wanted when Leng Rushuang was unconscious?
impossible!
After a brief thought, Li Sisui dismissed the idea. If it were going to work, it would have already done so. Why would it wait until now? But after thinking it over, he realized he had nothing to worry about. He was penniless and his cultivation was extremely weak. At worst, he would be sexually assaulted. What else could happen?
Li Sisui wasn't a masochist. It was certainly good that they could speak so politely. She no longer had to be so timid as before. If they could continue to treat each other with such respect, their relationship would become much more harmonious. If she really wanted to come along, then so be it. With a beautiful woman by her side, the journey shouldn't be lonely...
"Greetings, Grandmaster Uncle. And who is this senior?"
A whooshing sound came from behind. Jue Mingzi, dressed in full uniform and riding the Flaming Cloud Spear, arrived with a whoosh. Upon seeing the unfamiliar woman beside Li Sisui, he subconsciously asked...
"She's a friend of mine, let's ignore her and go!"
"Okay...okay, greetings, senior."
Leng Rushuang regained her icy demeanor. After Jue Mingzi finished speaking, she hurriedly summoned the Blazing Cloud Spear again and bowed, saying:
"Grandmaster Uncle, the journey to Shenxiao Palace is long, and Master has instructed me to take good care of you. Grandmaster Uncle, please do not fly alone on your artifact. Why don't you ride with me instead?"
Li Sisui raised an eyebrow, coughed lightly, and said in a pretentious manner:
"Well, that's good. Changsheng has thought things through very well. Thank you for your thoughtfulness!"
As he spoke, he walked steadily onto the long spear-like magical artifact made of Cassia Seed. By this time, the artifact had grown several times larger, resembling a dragon boat, and could easily support ten or eight adults.
Pfft!
But then came Leng Rushuang's sudden light laughter from behind. Li Sisui couldn't help but blush, a fleeting look of embarrassment crossing his face. Then came Leng Rushuang's icy voice:
"Lead the way, I'll follow behind."
Jue Mingzi feigned composure and floated down to the front of the spear. Li Si followed and climbed onto the spear. Satisfied, he sat cross-legged and began to meditate with his eyes closed. Soon after, he felt the wind whistling past his ears and his body floating unsteadily. He must have already taken off.
The spear kept shaking, and Li Sisui, who was somewhat afraid of heights, didn't dare to open his eyes to see what was happening. He could only pretend to cough a few times, and the spear finally stabilized. Li Sisui's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down...
Jue Mingzi nervously controlled the spear and flew towards Shenxiao Palace. His whole body was stiff. He had seen the wanted poster at Wulipo. Although his grandmaster's friend was wearing a veil, his posture and cold aura were exactly the same as Leng Rushuang, the traitor of Feihua Sect in the poster. How could he not recognize him?
How could he have gotten himself mixed up with two wanted criminals from Wulipo? Now, he can't afford to offend either of them. If he's not careful, he'll end up like a fish caught in the crossfire. If it weren't for his master's entrustment, he would never have gotten involved in this mess. What sect leader or not, he only has one life!
...
Leng Rushuang, her whole body wrapped in a red silk ribbon, hung slowly behind Li Sisui. Looking at the latter's upright figure, the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up. She naturally knew everything Li Sisui had done during his seclusion!
At first, the earth-shattering sword intent only aroused her vigilance and attention. After Li Sisui killed Bai Guo with one strike, she had to re-evaluate Li Sisui. And after Li Sisui once again persuaded Bai Guo, who was at the first level of the Transformation stage, to retreat with his unique domain, she had to put away her contempt and take him seriously!
Although Bai Shu was only at the first level of the Transformation stage, she was still at the Transformation stage. Now, her cultivation was only at the third level of the Transformation stage. If she dropped another level, she would have to start cultivating again. She couldn't afford to waste any more time. If she didn't leave seclusion soon, she would really be stuck in Wulipo!
After re-evaluating Li Si, she gradually realized that having Li Si as her protector was not bad. At least in the Wulipo area, it was better than fighting alone. Li Si could use and recover his cultivation at will, but her cultivation was diminishing with each use. Now that she had almost fully comprehended the cultivation technique, as long as she sensed the mountain array and returned to Saint Hill, she could return to her peak, or even surpass it, in a few years!
But before that, why not find a free thug who can bring his own taunts?
After all, Li Sisui's strength is now no less than Leng Rushuang's. Although there is still a gap between her and Leng Rushuang before, at least in the territory of Wulipo, there are few rivals. Moreover, because she is not suppressed by Wulipo, Li Sisui is even stronger than Leng Rushuang at this time!
Of course, if everyone is fighting tooth and nail, that's a different story. At least in Leng Rushuang's opinion, Li Sisui is now qualified to be her bodyguard...
