When the two of them reached a deserted place, Yunlin consciously fell behind Luo Tianxing. Luo Tianxing thought for a moment, then deliberately slowed down and walked alongside him.
She pretended to be obedient and said, "It's our first time meeting you, Elder Lin. Your lectures are very good."
"Well, thank you for the compliment."
Yunlin seemed to find her a little funny when he looked at her, but he still held it back. After the two arrived at the bamboo house, Yunlin activated the formation arranged here to isolate this area from the outside world.
Yunlin said seriously: "Miss, did Yun Zipei come to see you yesterday?"
Luo Tianxing originally thought that he was going to be scolded and was listless, but when he heard what happened, he immediately became energetic and went over the whole thing with him.
"...I just don't know why he decided to leave in the end." Luo Tianxing is very good at pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of acquaintances, shaking his head and asking, "Could it be that he has special skills and is actually very difficult to mess with?"
Yunlin just looked at her and smiled, without saying that he was near Luo Tianxing at that time.
Yun Zipei finally chose to leave, probably because he realized this.
In terms of cultivation, Yunlin knew that he could never compare to Yun Zipei, the clan leader's son. Some powerful children in the world of cultivation were born with good cultivation. Most of them could directly skip the two levels of Qi training and foundation building. , he was born at the end point that most monks could not reach in their entire lives.
But it just happened that I was hearing about others.
I heard that they were in a "fallen land" in Nanming Chezhou. It was rumored that this place was once an ancient battlefield. In order to suppress the blood and resentment that surged into the sky after the war, and to prevent demons from causing trouble, several ancient powerful men joined forces to form an array. The forceful pressure caused the land to sink three inches, completely changing the feng shui and luck of this ancient battlefield.
No matter how powerful a person is, he will be extremely suppressed when he comes to this realm, and the maximum strength he can display will not exceed the early stage of the Golden Core.
So when the two of them faced off, it was still unclear who would win and who would lose.
Luo Tianxing muttered a few more random words before he said worriedly: "Will he come again?"
Yunlin came to his senses and did not answer the question, but smiled and said: "I will protect the young lady."
When Luo Tianxing heard this, the corners of his mouth drooped, and he squatted down and hugged himself, as if he was at a loss.
Yunlin wanted to laugh a little when he saw her like this, but there were too many worries at the moment to allow him to lower his lips sincerely. He asked in a casual manner: "By the way, miss, I just saw that the young master who is engaged to you seems to be able to practice?"
Luo Tianxing rested his chin on his hands, deliberately not looking at him, and said, "Yeah, I didn't pay much attention either."
"Because you also know," Luo Tian raised his hand carelessly and pinched it with two fingers, "They are like little bugs. They practice Qi today and build foundation tomorrow. Who can notice them every day? ?”
When he heard her say this, Yunlin looked specifically into the girl's eyes and found that her eyes were clear and she had no hidden emotions, as if she thought so from the bottom of her heart.
Yunlin narrowed his eyes, not sure whether he believed her words or not, but shook his head helplessly and said: "If the head of the family knows about these words, I'm afraid..."
Luo Tianxing stuck out his tongue, "I know Brother Lin is the best to me, don't tell my eldest sister."
Yunlin smiled gently and said, "Miss, I understand. I will report to the master about yesterday's incident. You should go back first."
Luo Tianxing nodded and left the bamboo forest, unaware that Yunlin behind her was staring at her with complex eyes, still thinking about something.
As soon as Luo Tianxing came out of the bamboo forest, he saw a familiar figure waiting outside with a sword in his hand.
"Wenren Zhaoye? You——"
She was just about to frown and ask, "Why are you here?" Then she thought that she had just said bad things about him behind his back, and her aura involuntarily dropped by three points, and said, "You, you are waiting for me here."
Wenren Zhaoye nodded and gestured: "Together."
Luo Tianxing wrinkled his nose, feeling something strange.
In the past few days, she has been gradually opening the distance between the two of them, which is much more restrained than before when she casually ordered Wenren Zhaoye to do whatever he wanted. However, this act of secretly drawing a clear line did not work, because... Wenren Zhaoye seemed to have become more clingy.
Luo Tianxing couldn't help but feel a little frightened when he thought that the word "sticky" could be associated with Wenren Zhaoye, and he quickly touched the small bump on his arm that was stimulated by this idea.
Was she overthinking, or did Wenren Zhaoye notice something?
But if it were put forward, she said there was no need to wait, Wenren Zhaoye would leave obediently, and the two of them would break up, each busy with his own business?
It doesn't seem like it will either.
Luo Tianxing was a little unsure again. Wenren Zhaoye seemed to have this temperament of being intermittently unable to understand people's words. How else could he be called wood?
Wen Renzhaoye took two steps forward and saw that she was standing still with a troubled look on her face. He did not rush her and stood there quietly waiting for her.
He didn't even notice it. He put one hand behind him, his fingers clenched slightly because of nervousness.
Forget it, the world is huge and eating is the biggest thing.
Luo Tianxing trotted to keep up with the young man's pace, temporarily forgetting all the messy things.
Wenren Zhaoye took a breath and walked side by side with her.
——————————
In the martial arts training room, two figures, a man and a woman, passed by each other in an instant, with swords and swords flashing.
Wen Renzhaoye's sword was powerful, and every move was aimed directly at the vital point. Yue Manyi's expression was always indifferent, as if she didn't take him seriously at all. After she found the right moment, Yun Danfeng slapped Wenren Zhaoye on the chest with a gentle palm, sending him flying away.
Wenren Zhaoye's body spun in mid-air and landed firmly on the ground. When he stood up again, his body stagnated, and his sword movement was half a breath slower than usual.
Yue Manyi seemed dissatisfied with his performance, she said: "You are more than usual today..."
Before he finished speaking, the young man holding the sword suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground. He used the sword to support his body to prevent him from falling completely. He lowered his head and vomited a mouthful of black blood.
Yue Manyi frowned, and she quickly walked up to Wen Renzhao Ye, stretched out two fingers and put them on his forehead, her face changed slightly.
She asked in a deep voice: "Who have you seen in the past two days?"
Wenren Zhaoye wiped the blood from his lips with his sleeve and nodded.
"Someone put a little bit of Qi into your body."
Yue Manyi's two fingers drew a wisp of black energy from the center of her eyebrows, lingering on her bright white fingers.
Her voice was as cold as ice, "Don't underestimate this ray of energy. It may seem insignificant, but in fact it will gradually dissipate the spiritual power you have finally raised. Over time, it will be enough to destroy the foundation of your Dao. Gradually cut off your vitality."
No matter how cold-hearted Yue Manyi was, she couldn't help but secretly feel scared at this moment. If she and Wen Renzhaoye hadn't accidentally caused this ray of energy to explode in advance during the battle, the young man would have become a useless person day by day in front of her eyes.
This trick is insidious and silent, and can only be used by some practitioners with extremely bad intentions to trick people who are much lower than him.
Who would use such tactics to deal with this unknown young man?
Yue Manyi couldn't help but look at Wenren Zhaoye who was kneeling on the ground, only to find that his expression had become very calm after the initial daze.
Wenren Zhaoye knew very well that the two strangers he had met today and yesterday were just Luo Tianxing's fourteenth brother, and the new "Elder Lin" who had a close relationship with Luo Tianxing.
Who among the two of them wants to completely destroy him?
Or maybe this is their tacit understanding.
Wen Renzhaoye didn't know much about the intrigues and intrigues within the Yun family, but he also knew very well that Luo Tianxing, who was extremely favored by the two powerful sisters in the family, had no reason to marry a country loser. The reason why Luo Tianxing came here temporarily is by no means that simple. The engagement was probably just a cover.
When the time comes and Luo Tianxing returns to the clan, the best outcome for him as a betrothed is to forget about the past as if it were a dream and live a normal life.
The worst thing is to be directly and quietly obliterated.
"You need to tell Luo Tianxing about this," Yue Manyi said, "She can help you find out who it is..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Ren Zhaoye shake his head very firmly.
He adapted well to the pain. At this time, he had already stood up with the support of his sword. After taking two deep breaths, he repositioned his sword and seemed to be about to start fighting.
Yue Manyi frowned, "You don't want to know who harmed you?"
Wen Renzhaoye shook his head, he picked up his sword and carved a few words on the stone wall.
【I do not care. 】
In fact, only he knew in his heart that it wasn't that he didn't care, but that he couldn't care or even think too much about it.
If Luo Tianxing's family really wanted to kill him quietly and let him die, what should he do?
Wenren Zhaoye tightened his grip on the sword hilt.
The young man who had always been in a calm state of mind suddenly felt a little panicked at this moment. He didn't dare to bet on which side Luo Tianxing would take after he found out about this matter.
He was young and wandering, and after coming to the Wenren tribe, he was ridiculed and bullied because he could not practice. He was very aware of the gap between the gods in the sky and the down-and-out mortals. No matter how hard he did not want to underestimate himself, he worked hard day and night, and in the eyes of those people, he finally It's just a speck of dust.
In the final analysis, it was just because his sword was not strong enough and his cultivation level was not high enough.
If the avenue is destroyed again this time...
This ray of energy not only hit his Qi veins, but also hit the most fearful place in his heart.
Countless nights, he had thought about whether Luo Tianxing would be married to others like a flower and live peacefully in a hundred years' time, when he would have gray hair and a stooped figure like an old man that can be seen everywhere in the world... Thinking this in his mind, he almost gave birth to an inner demon.
In a flash of thought, Wenren Zhaoye had decided to hide Luo Tianxing's side. He would avenge his revenge himself one day, so there was no need to involve her in a dilemma.
But at this moment, Wen Renzhao Ye felt a pain in the back of his head. Someone slapped him hard on the back of the head, slapping all his messy thoughts away.
Luo Tianxing looked at the four big words "I don't care" written neatly on the stone wall and almost laughed out loud at this idiot.
"You don't care about your own life... You are generous."
Luo Tianxing snatched the sword from Wenren Zhaoye's hand. She raised the sword and struck it with great strength. She actually chopped the word "NO" on the wall into pieces.
She pointed to the remaining words on the wall and said word by word: "I care."
Wenren Zhaoye didn't expect Luo Tianxing to appear here. He looked at her blankly and felt thousands of emotions welling up in his heart.
These days, he always felt that Luo Tianxing was not treating him the same as before, and he always suspected that he had done something wrong. At this moment, her words were like inserting a needle in his heart. The uneasiness, suspicion, and darkness just now were easily erased. No, but the sour feeling in my heart is still there, and it is difficult to express anything for a while.
Luo Tianxing didn't know the complicated psychological activities in Wenren Zhaoye's heart, so he threw the sword back to him.
She has been feeling uneasy since meeting Yun Zipei yesterday. When she saw Yunlin today, she felt that there was something strange about him, as if he was hiding something, so she decided to come to Wenren Zhaoye to have a look. I happened to see this scene.
Luo Tianxing glanced over, and without her having to say anything, she saw that the young man who looked a little gloomy and surly just now had sheathed his sword and said with a very obedient gesture: "I won't dare next time."
"There won't be a next time."
Luo Tianxing said angrily. She hesitated for a moment and then added one more instruction: "If you meet someone you don't know at Wenren's house these days, be sure to walk around. When you ask me, you should say you don't know. Remember Already?"
Wenren Zhaoye frowned slightly and asked, "Why?"
"How can there be so many reasons..." Luo Tianxing muttered, but still explained, "My brothers and sisters don't have a good relationship. They come here to find trouble. Those people are not what you can deal with now."
She seemed quite troubled. After finishing speaking, she closed her fingers together and the wisp of black smoke shattered in her hands.
At the same time, in a tavern in Yunqi City, a drunken gray-haired young man was lying on the table. He half-closed his eyes and let out a light tut if he felt something.
"Young sister, Brother Fourteen is doing it for you..." As if drinking to drown his sorrows, he picked up the wine bottle on the table, poured another glass of wine, and put it in his mouth.
"You, Fourteenth Brother, and I are walking around the world, how can we still know what all the men outside are like?" He said drunkenly, "Men and women are all ordinary. Poor Yaomei, she was deceived again, wasn't she? ? At this moment, I am still thinking of your two sisters. They said that the Yun Clan is dangerous, so in order to cover up others’ eyes, they asked you to come to the Wen Human Clan to avoid danger... ha."
"Why don't you think about how Brother Fourteen knew you were here?"
There is a lake outside the tavern, and many tourists come here to throw hooks and fish. Someone threw the fishhook into the water, and many fish came under the water. After a while, some fish took the lead in biting the hook. The tourist hurriedly laughed and lifted his pole, drawing a flying water line in the sun.
Yun Zipei closed his eyes and hummed to himself:
"The fish eat the bait..."
