"Put me down!"

"Oh, okay."

Bang!

Qin Gengyun let go, and Xue Wen was caught off guard and fell directly to the ground.

He jumped up and glared at Qin Gengyun: "Come again!"

In the collision just now, Xue Wen thought that he could easily knock this useless pretty boy away and let the saint see the true face of this useless guy.

But he didn't expect that he would be the one who was knocked away.

It was I who made a fool of myself in front of the saint.

He couldn't accept it at all, so he jumped several feet away, ready to attack again.

Qin Gengyun kindly advised: "Fellow Daoist Xue, you are not a physical cultivator. It is too disadvantageous to use your own shortcomings like this. My cultivation is indeed not as good as yours. I lose."

"What do you mean you lose?"

Xue Wen was furious: "Don't put on airs in front of Junior Sister Qiu, today I will teach you a lesson with my body cultivation technique!"

Xue Wu quickly ran to Qiu Zhihe and whispered, "Saintess, please stop my brother. He only listens to you."

Qiu Zhihe said calmly: "Xue Wen is loyal to Qinglian Sect, brave and good at fighting, but he is too impatient, it would be good to temper him a little."

Xue Wu was helpless, knowing that it was his brother who had just insulted the Saint's husband, making the Saint angry. He could only look at the field again with a bitter face.

Facing Xue Wen's renewed provocation, Qin Gengyun said helplessly: "In this case, please show mercy, Fellow Daoist Xue."

"Stop talking nonsense and come on!"

Xue Wen roared angrily and rushed towards Qin Gengyun again.

Qin Gengyun sighed and bumped into Xue Wen.

boom!

There was another loud bang and scream.

Xue Wen flew backwards again, and this time he fell directly into the lotus pond, sinking with a plop like a weight.

Everyone stared at the lotus pond intently. After waiting for a long time, Xue Wen did not come up. Qin Gengyun's face changed slightly and he jumped into the lotus pond.

A moment later, Qin Gengyun jumped out of the lotus pond, still holding the unconscious Xue Wen in his arms.

"elder brother!"

"Elder Xue!"

Everyone was shocked and quickly surrounded him. Qin Gengyun said:

"Elder Xue fainted. I have used my spiritual power to protect his meridians and spiritual fields. He is now fine."

Everyone looked strange and was speechless for a while.

Elder Xue was knocked unconscious?

If it weren’t for Fellow Daoist Qin’s quick reaction, Elder Xue might have been drowned?

So he was saved by his love rival?

Qin Gengyun put Xue Wen on the ground, and everyone tried to rescue him. Xue Wen spat out a mouthful of water and woke up slowly. When he saw Qin Gengyun, he wanted to jump up.

"That's enough."

Qiu Zhihe walked over with a cold voice.

Xue Wu saw that the Saint was a little angry, so he quickly held Xue Wen down. Qin Gengyun bowed to Xue Wen and said:

"Fellow Daoist Xue has lowered his cultivation by several levels, and even used physical training, which he is not good at, to fight with me. This shows that Fellow Daoist Xue is a noble person. Qin is willing to admit that he is inferior to me."

Qin Gengyun's words were not just sarcastic remarks after winning; he really believed it and spoke from his heart.

If Xue Wen really fought him with all his strength, the other person was only at the third level of Nascent Soul, six small realms ahead of him. Even if he used Soul Fixing and Moon Breaking, at most he would die in exchange for injury, and it would be difficult for him to defeat Xue Wen.

Therefore, Qin Gengyun still admired Xue Wen very much.

His words came from the heart, and the others also saw his sincerity. Although they were angry that the saint was deceived by him, they didn't say anything else.

Xue Wu quickly tried to smooth things over: "We are just sparring with each other, don't hurt the relationship. Haha, come on, let's continue drinking!"

Liu Xiaotang ran over obediently and moved out another long table, put some wine on it, and quickly cooked a table of dishes with Fang Chao.

Xue Wen was forced to sit down by Xue Wu. He kept his head down and said nothing. Everyone followed suit and sat down, but the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Liu Xiaotang rolled his eyes, picked up his wine glass and said to Xue Wen:

"Master, thank you for your guidance in my training these days. Master, your cultivation is extraordinary. Just a few words can enlighten me. In my eyes, Master, you are the best!"

Xue Wen was startled, and met Liu Xiaotang's sparkling eyes, which showed no false respect. His wounded heart finally found a little comfort, and he finally picked up the wine glass:

"My niece is so honest!"

After saying that, he clinked glasses with Liu Xiaotang and drank it all in one gulp.

Xue Wu also took the opportunity to toast Qiu Zhihe, and the others clinked their glasses with each other, and the atmosphere at the table finally returned to being lively and harmonious.

Qiu Zhihe looked at Liu Xiaotang with appreciation. The little girl understood and blinked at Qiu Zhihe happily.

Xue Wu thought for a moment, raised his glass and said to Qin Gengyun: "Brother Qin, I'll toast you another glass!"

"Thank you, Brother Xue. Cheers!"

"Dry!"

The two clinked their glasses and drank it all. Xue Wu smiled and said:

"Junior Sister Qiu is the apple of our Qinglian Sect's eye. I don't know how many disciples admire her, but she has never been polite to anyone. I wonder how Brother Qin got to know Junior Sister Qiu?"

For a moment, everyone fell silent and looked at Qin Gengyun.

Qiu Zhihe looked at him, seemed to remember everything that happened in the past, and her eyes became gentle.

Qin Gengyun said to Qiu Zhihe: "Madam, can you tell me?"

Qiu Zhihe rolled her eyes at him: "He asked you, why are you asking me?"

This coquettish look was shy and charming, more beautiful than the lotus flowers in the pond beside.

Everyone in the Qinglian Sect had never seen the Saint appear like such a little girl, and they were all stunned.

But such a beautiful saint only bloomed for Qin Gengyun. Xue Wen's eyes were filled with anger, and he almost couldn't help but want to compete with Qin Gengyun again.

Under the complicated gazes of the crowd, Qin Gengyun put down his wine glass, his eyes softened, and he said slowly:

"At the beginning, I was poisoned by the elixir. Not only did my cultivation stagnate, but I didn't even have many years to live. I had lost all hope, but then I met Zhihe..."

Then he recounted the story of how they met, got to know each other, and fell in love.

Of course, some details that are not known to outsiders have been omitted.

Just from his narration, everyone can feel how the couple have supported each other to get to where they are today.

Liu Xiaotang held his chin with both hands, looked envious, and couldn't help but sigh:

"This is a couple, huh? That's great!"

The Fengling Village where she lives is full of people who imprison women and kill their wives for survival. Such a beautiful love story has never been heard of.

The people from the Qinglian Sect also fell silent after listening to what they heard. They felt somewhat uncomfortable when they saw that the Saint was marrying an outsider and they were so intimate with him.

But he never thought about how tragic the battle of Tianlu Mountain was, and what the Saint had experienced. If she had not met Qin Gengyun, perhaps it would have been difficult for the Saint to hold on until today.

The saint and this man can be said to be supporting each other.

Xue Wu looked at Xue Wen, who was silent and bowed his head, and sighed meaningfully:

"I see. This is the fate between people. It cannot be forced."

Xue Wen stopped talking and just drank sip after sip, ignoring others' advice that he had just been injured and should not get drunk.

In the end, Xue Wen was helped back to his room by several people.

It was getting late, and everyone had had enough of drinking, so they went their separate ways.

Qiu Zhihe gave Liu Xiaotang a few instructions, and Liu Xiaotang nodded in agreement and left quickly.

Qin Gengyun was also a little tipsy. He had some minor injuries when he collided with Xue Wen just now. At this moment, Qiu Zhihe helped him back to the bedroom of the house.

Xue Wu had been staying in this room temporarily before. Liu Xiaotang had already cleaned it and replaced the bedding with new ones. She was so thoughtful as to replace it with a bright red quilt with a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water.

Qin Gengyun was supported by Qiu Zhihe and walked to the bedside, and threw him directly onto the bed. Her pretty face blushed slightly, and she looked down at him coldly:

"Take off your clothes!"
