Yan Hanxing watched as the little fox worked so hard to successfully dig a pit for someone, and made them willingly jump in. Her eyes softened.
She had everything he liked about her; even without confirmation, he was certain that she was her.
After casually tossing Dongdan Shuiyue behind the flying sword, Yan Hanxing and the little bandit returned unharmed to another backup courtyard not far from the Vulture Courtyard.
This was also one of the backup courtyards that Qian Youying had prepared for the Qian family, but now it has become something for him to use to surrender to Ji Fengyao.
Ji Fengyao dispatched Wu Tongyu, a newly recruited late-stage Core Formation cultivator, to take care of and guard Dongdan Shuiyue.
Using the excuse of needing to go back and prepare medicinal herbs, she returned to the Vulture Courtyard with Yan Hanxing.
"Feng Yao, don't you think Dong Dan Shui Yue was rescued too easily?" When Yan Hanxing was alone with Ji Feng Yao, she completely abandoned her cold, arrogant, and aloof demeanor in public, becoming obedient and gentle, like a little puppy.
Especially when he looked at the little female bandit, his eyes sparkled like stars, which was extremely moving.
Ji Fengyao, however, seemed oblivious, her expression and tone remaining unchanged: "In the eyes of Dongdan Yinxiang and the others, Dongdan Shuiyue is already a cripple. What trouble can a cripple who has left the Dongdan family cause? Besides, our attire tonight doesn't look like that of good people at all. They might even be thanking us for kidnapping Dongdan Shuiyue right now, and praying that we will kill and bury the body for them."
Yan Hanxing: "..."
The little girl is not only intelligent and beautiful, but she also knows how to make fun of herself.
Everyone else wants to portray themselves as heroes or gods, but she alone is willing to go all out and say that she is not like a good person.
So incredibly cute!
Yan Hanxing was thinking about Ji Fengyao's good qualities, while Ji Fengyao was pondering how to bypass Yan Hanxing in order to obtain the Heart of Godslayer.
Although she had tested Yan Hanxing with a magic crystal, after spending the day together, she did not find anything wrong with him.
But for some reason, she couldn't fully trust him, so she never let Qian Youying show himself in front of Yan Hanxing.
The reason she initially decided to take Yan Hanxing under her wing was because an enemy lurking in the shadows was far more terrifying than one right under her nose. And tonight, calling him out to rescue Dongdan Shuiyue was merely a way to gain his trust, to give him the illusion that "she already trusts him," and to lower his guard against her.
But if he really has a problem, there's no one around her who can stand up to him right now!
Once he learns of the existence of the God-Slaying Heart, if he were to unleash it, all of them would likely be subject to its control.
The little bandit girl, with her hands behind her back, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, each step she took tinged with sorrow.
She had foreseen the Zhou family and the Dongdan family.
But what they didn't consider was that the rogue cultivators in this world might also be problematic!
Upon reaching the entrance of Vulture Courtyard, Ji Fengyao suddenly turned around and met Yan Hanxing's eyes, which were clearly filled with doting affection.
Yan Hanxing was so overwhelmed with love that she couldn't take it back. She was stunned for a moment, and two blushes rose on her face. She was incredibly docile.
"Little Star," Ji Fengyao said, standing on tiptoe and reaching out to put her hand on Yan Hanxing's shoulder.
"Feng... Feng Yao..." Yan Hanxing stammered involuntarily, taken aback by her sudden closeness.
"Don't look at me like that again," Ji Fengyao said earnestly and with a tone full of "I'm doing this for your own good." "I don't want people to misunderstand, and it won't lead to anything."
