"Huh? No, no! That's not true!"
Pang Shunan trembled all over, lowered his head even further, his neck turned bright red, and he was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Then why don't you call me 'sister' so I can hear it?"
"This..." Pang Shunan hesitated for a moment, but seeing Guan Yingying's increasingly furrowed brows, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and call out, "Sister Guan... Sister Guan!"
"That's more like it! So thin-skinned? A man should be more magnanimous!"
Guan Yingying's pent-up frustration from Shen Yunhao vanished instantly. She smiled and poked the boy's flushed cheek, her tone like that of a complete scumbag, "Stop thinking about the past! There are plenty of fish in the sea, why be hung up on just one? Xiao An'an, what do you think... how does my sister compare to your childhood sweetheart?"
boom!
Pang Shunan felt as if a bomb had exploded in his head, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.
"Ah...I..."
But he was clearly not stupid, and without much hesitation, he replied, "Guan... Fairy Guan is like a celestial being descended from heaven, naturally she is much more beautiful!"
What he said wasn't entirely untrue. Chi Dandan was indeed quite pretty, having managed to hook up with a senior disciple from Baihe Temple without any connections, but she was still somewhat inferior to Guan Yingying.
In particular, the aura of a fairy from the Moon Palace that Guan Yingying exudes is far beyond what ordinary girls can match.
"Oh...you've got a sweet tongue! How about...I'll give you a chance to date me?"
"ah--?"
The immense shock, bewilderment, and a secret, unspoken tremor that even he dared not delve into left the boy utterly speechless, frozen in place like a steamed stone statue.
Guan Yingying was so amused by his appearance that she laughed uproariously, "Hahaha... Little An'an, you're so cute! Hahaha..."
...
Several more days passed, and the flying boat was less than a thousand miles away from their target, Wanren City.
Below the airship stretched a continuous, verdant mountain range, with sunlight piercing through thin clouds and casting dappled shadows among the peaks.
On the deck, Guan Yingying was lying on her "favorite" lounge chair, dozing off with her eyes half-closed. Not far away, Pang Shunan sat by the railing, seemingly looking at the scenery below the ship. But every now and then, when he looked up, his gaze would unconsciously drift in Guan Yingying's direction, and then he would look away as if he had been electrocuted, and lower his head.
"Snap!"
Just then, a large hand patted his shoulder, startling him.
"Little An'an... what are you thinking about?"
"Huh? Brother Ma... Brother Ma... you're awake..."
Pang Shunan was completely unaware that Ma Tianyu had changed his address from the usual "Brother Pang" to the rather meaningful "Little An'an," and just hurriedly shook his head, "No...no, I was thinking, when will we be able to get there!"
Ma Tianyu glanced furtively at Guan Yingying on the other side and couldn't help but sigh.
Having spent so many days on the ship, he naturally noticed some clues... but he didn't want to offer any advice, so he simply asked, "Where's Brother Shen? Why can't I see him?"
"Oh, Brother Shen and Fairy Ning disembarked on their swords quite early..."
"The sword that your Brother Shen wields?"
"Um……"
"Damn! That brat, always showing off in front of me, and he actually learned it..."
Meanwhile, several miles away from the airship.
The Guixue Sword steadily carried the two of them slowly through the air. Shen Yunhao stood in front, controlling the sword, while Ning Yuyao stood behind him, standing steadily without needing any support.
After flying for a while, Shen Yunhao laughed heartily and said, "Wife! Look at my sword control technique, isn't it quite up to par?"
Seeing his smug look, Ning Yuyao didn't discourage him and nodded gently, "It's usable now..."
"What do you mean even if it works... Look, I can carry you through the air without any problems!"
"Mmm...My husband is wonderful..."
Hearing his wife's praise, Shen Yunhao became even more smug: "Yao'er! Hold on tight to me, I'm going to... speed up!"
"Brother Yunhao, you shouldn't be greedy..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Yunhao had already increased the output of his spiritual energy, and the Guixue Sword flew out fiercely!
The sudden inertia made Ning Yuyao frown, but she did not panic. She lightly touched the ground with her feet and stood firmly on the sword.
"Brother Yunhao, be careful... um..."
Before he could finish another sentence, Shen Yunhao seemed to freeze in his spiritual energy, and the Guixue Sword suddenly stopped!
This time, Ning Yuyao didn't react in time and crashed into Shen Yunhao's back.
Shen Yunhao felt something extremely elastic being squeezed into an exaggerated arc on his back, and then "DUANG" he was thrown out...
He couldn't help but swallow.
Ning Yuyao was clearly caught off guard and gently scolded, "Husband, why are you so impulsive? This sword-controlling technique cannot be mastered overnight! We must proceed slowly..."
"Oh... I... I understand..."
Then, Shen Yunhao suddenly stepped on the gas pedal and then suddenly stepped on the brake.
"DUANG!"
Gui Xuejian was like a car with a malfunctioning engine, stopping and starting repeatedly. Ning Yuyao finally realized what was happening and, blushing, let out a soft scolding.
"Why is Brother Yunhao being so uncooperative? Are we still going to practice or not? If not, let's go back to bed!"
She meant to say "go back to the ship," but in her anger, she mispronounced a word.
Shen Yunhao paused for a moment, then revealed a mischievous smile: "Oh dear... this isn't a good idea, is it? It's broad daylight, if Brother Ma and the others find out, they'll laugh at us... Ouch... Ouch!"
The blushing girl finally couldn't resist and pinched the soft flesh on Shen Yunhao's waist, making Shen Yunhao startled by the pain!
However... this small movement shattered the balance that Shen Yunhao was struggling to maintain! Gui Xue Sword suddenly tilted, like a drunken bird, and began to shake violently in the air!
"Watch out!" Ning Yuyao exclaimed.
"Holy crap!"
Shen Yunhao frantically tried to adjust the flow of spiritual energy, but he was already inexperienced in this area, and with his mind in disarray, his spiritual energy immediately went out of control!
The Guixue Sword emitted a slight tremor, and its light dimmed instantly. The two of them plummeted straight down into the forest below like kites with broken strings!
"Yao'er! Hold me tight!"
In a panic, Shen Yunhao instinctively held Ning Yuyao tightly in his arms, while simultaneously activating his spiritual energy to protect himself.
Ning Yuyao originally planned to use her sword to rescue him, but when she noticed Shen Yunhao's actions, she was inexplicably moved and stopped using her sword, instead snuggling into Shen Yunhao's arms.
At the same time, try to control the spiritual energy to slow down their descent...
With their cultivation levels, they shouldn't be seriously injured falling from such a height. Plus, with spiritual energy protecting them, they'll only be a little disheveled at most.
But this kind of "subconscious" happiness is a rare opportunity...
Boom!
With a crackling sound of breaking branches, the two crashed heavily into the depths of the forest.
Ning Yuyao's prediction was correct. The tree branches cushioned most of the impact, and with the protection of her spiritual energy, neither of them was injured. However, the impact left Shen Yunhao outside completely disoriented.
