That beautiful scene seemed to be silently proclaiming to him:
As long as they are together
As long as their hearts are still together, they will be content with either life or death.
Everyone else besides them is just an embellishment to add to the beauty;
Or, a boring and ridiculous test.
"So annoying," Shang Beiyu said softly, uttering three words that sounded like jade beads rolling across a soft string, extremely pleasant to the ear, yet cold and heartless.
He raised his hand and gently waved it forward, a wisp of spiritual light shooting from between his fingers, striking Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye's intertwined hands.
Although Shang Xiye couldn't see Shang Beiyu, he sensed the attack with his battle-hardened intuition. He pulled Ji Fengyao's hand in front of him and then quickly dodged to the side with his arm around his wife.
The wisp of light brushed past the two of them and quickly vanished without a trace.
Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye exchanged a glance, and then, with perfect understanding, they exerted their strength at the same time, using seventy or eighty percent of their power, and quickly climbed up the rock.
Although Shang Beiyu disliked seeing Shang Xiye embracing the little bandit in front of him, if he attacked them again, they would inevitably fall down together.
He couldn't kill Shang Xiye himself, nor did he want to hurt the little female bandit.
Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye arrived at the top of the cliff without incident, which was quite unexpected.
They assumed the man would strike again on their way up, as that would be the best opportunity to kill them.
Only magpies were on the cliff; she stood there blankly, like a statue.
Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye knew that the person was nearby, but since they couldn't see him, they pretended that the person didn't exist and went to Xique's side first.
"Xique, I'm here." Ji Fengyao placed her other hand on Xique's wrist and felt that the spiritual energy in her body was like a stagnant pool.
She understood that the man had used his cultivation aura to suppress the magpie.
If that person wanted to, he could crush the magpie into mincemeat at any time.
"I wonder which senior is here? Would you please show yourself and have a chat?" Ji Fengyao knew she couldn't save Xique, so she turned around and led Shang Xiye to the place she suspected.
The etiquette here refers to the etiquette of the cultivators, not the etiquette of the mortal world.
Upon seeing her gesture, Shang Beiyu smiled with delight.
She was indeed no ordinary mortal woman, but a person from the cultivation world.
Furthermore, the fact that she did not show any signs of being unable to bear the pressure when he deliberately separated part of his divine sense to oppress her indicates that her cultivation level in her previous life should not be lower than that of the Core Formation stage. She must have been a cultivator who had undergone several trials and knew a lot about the cultivation world.
In this way, when he and she are together in the future, they will be more compatible.
He was not satisfied with how she addressed him, but he couldn't correct it now.
Shang Beiyu revealed himself, but his body was surrounded by a cloud of white mist.
Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye couldn't even see his black robe clearly; they could only vaguely make out a figure in front of them.
"What do you want to talk about?" Shang Beiyu asked calmly.
His voice was unusually deep, as if it came from the bottom of a deep pool.
"Senior, could you please release my maid? She is still a mortal. If her blood and spiritual energy are sealed for too long, it will damage her meridians and affect her aptitude," Ji Fengyao asked tentatively.
Shang Beiyu chuckled softly: "What a clever little fellow. You tried to save your girl while also testing my intentions to see if I truly wanted to kill you."
As soon as he finished speaking...
Ji Fengyao heard the soft panting and calling of a magpie behind her: "Whoa... Miss!"
