On Li Chouxin's way back to Fumanlou, people were telling her romantic stories at the Xunyang Poetry Club. She didn't expect that in such a short period of time, she would become a hot topic of discussion among the people in Xunyang.
But at this time, it was more important to go back to Fumanlou first. He didn't know how he had been discussed among the girls. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Not far from Fuman Building, Li Chouxin saw six girls waiting at the door. Li Chouxin began to smile and walked towards the girls with a guilty conscience.
"Hey! Isn't this our romantic and talented young master Chou Xin? What? Is he finally willing to come back?" Zhu Wei asked first.
Li Chou felt a little embarrassed and replied in a low voice: "Don't make trouble, little Zhuwei, I'm back now."
Shuyi came out at this time and said: "Humph! That's not what the young master said yesterday. What he said yesterday was to come back later. It's already dawn, so it's too late!"
Li Chouxin looked at the angry looks of several people and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Qin Yin also came out and joked: "It's rare for a young master to have a romantic night and still remember us sisters. It's really hard for the young master."
Li Chouxin knew that it would be difficult to explain clearly this time. After all, the people in front of him usually called him Brother Chouxin, but today they all called him Young Master. It seemed that it was difficult to reconcile for the moment.
"I really drank a few too many drinks last night and forgot about the time. It made you worry because I was worried. I apologize to you here."
Several people looked at Li Chouxin's sincere attitude and still did not intend to let him go. Seyu said: "Young Master has become a romantic man. Now it is Young Master who apologizes and takes advantage, but we sisters are not easy to fool." "
After listening to Se Yu's words, Li Chouxin quickly looked at Ziwei. After all, several people listened to Ziwei's words. Li Chouxin was asking Ziwei for help. Although Ziwei was angry, she still spoke to Li Chouxin without hesitation to save her.
"Sisters, forget it, Zhu Wei started this matter. Besides, the young master had no intention of doing so. He is just very talented, so he can't blame others. There is no talented person in the world who is not romantic, so don't surround him. Damn it, Brother Chouxin is going to the ruined temple in the east of the city to confront Pei Chen today, so don’t affect him and let him have a good rest."
Seeing Ziwei help him speak, Li Chouxin felt even more guilty. He knew clearly about Ziwei's friendship for him, but still asked Ziwei to help him by saying such unintentional words. He suddenly felt that he was too unreasonable, so he assured the girls: "Girls, I, Li Chouxin, promise in front of you today that I will never stay out late at night again. Even if I stay up late at night, I can only stay at the girls' place."
After hearing what Li Chouxin said, the girls began to feel a little happy, and the angry expressions on their faces softened slightly. Shuyi and Qiyun accidentally smiled.
But Ziwei said: "It's none of our business where you stay. I promise you won't forget to take advantage of us. You're such a playboy."
After listening to Ziwei's words, several girls also smiled and said: "That's right, whoever wants to sleep with you."
Li Chouxin saw that several girls were saying they were unhappy, but in fact they no longer blamed themselves, so she said: "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you. From now on, I will sleep with whoever is willing."
At this time, Zhu Wei jumped forward and said, "Brother Chou Xin, they are not willing, but Zhu Wei is willing!"
Seeing that Zhu Wei had taken the lead, several people stepped forward to squeeze Zhu Wei behind them, and rushed to say: "Brother Chou Xin, you just made angry remarks, and we are also willing."
Several people just said shamelessly in front of the door that they wanted to sleep with Li Chouxin, completely losing their dignified and elegant lady image.
Li Chouxin felt that the matter was almost over, so she called a few people to walk towards the building, and finally got through the questioning of several people.
"Several beautiful sisters have to go find Pei Chen next afternoon. Now they need to go back to their rooms to prepare. They can't accompany these girls this morning. I'll see you all again at lunch." Li Chouxin didn't wait for a few seconds after finishing her sentence. After the girl spoke, she hurried upstairs and closed the door. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Chouxin returned to the house and remembered Pei Chen's promise to fight. He didn't dare to be careless, so he took out the heart-drawing technique that he had not practiced for many years and began to practice it. Every time it came to the critical moment of breaking through the second level and the third level, he could not break through. Look, It is indeed difficult to reach the third level of soul control, so I turned to study Qi Ying Luo Jiutian. Unexpectedly, although this move seems simple, it does take some time to practice if you want to display the strength of Master. Today, if you act too hastily, you will only lose more than you gain.
Li Chou saw that his cultivation had stalled, so he threw himself on the bed and fell asleep. After all, he had spent too much time with Yu Liuli last night and was feeling low. It was better to catch up on some sleep at this moment.
After sleeping, it was noon and he was woken up by the knocking on the door outside the house as usual. Several girls were waiting for him to eat.
Li Chouxin turned over her tired body, packed her clothes and walked out.
Several people looked at Li Chouxin's sleepy look and did not forget to tease him.
Qinyin said: "It seems that Mr. Chouxin worked too hard with the little jade-glazed beauty last night. Both physical strength and energy were wasted!"
Li Chouxin's face was extremely hot when he heard this, and his whole face turned red at once.
Several girls looked at Li Chouxin's expression and covered their mouths and laughed.
Qi Yun, who usually seemed well-behaved, also said: "It seems that Brother Chouxin really had a good night's sleep last night."
Only then did Li Chouxin speak, "Girls, please be more dignified and stop teasing Chouxin about this matter. What do you want to eat today? Chouxin will arrange it for you."
I have to say that Li Chouxin did a good job of changing the topic, or it could be said that the girls still blamed him, so they stopped teasing him after he said it.
Several people came to the table and sat down, letting the waiter serve some food.
When Li Chouxin looked at the food on the table, she began to murmur in her heart: "These guys are waiting for me here. No wonder they stopped talking to themselves just now."
Zhu Wei pointed to a plate on the table and said, "Brother Chouxin, this is the fried egg with chives that Sister Qinyin specially ordered for you."
Then Qinyin also said: "This is the turtle stewed quail that sister Seyu ordered for brother Chouxin."
Seeing this, several people began to introduce the dishes.
"This is the wolfberry black-bone chicken soup ordered by sister Shuyi, this is the braised eel ordered by Qi Yun, and this is the braised venison ordered by sister Zhu Wei."
After the introduction, Li Chou couldn't sit still. After all, the whole table was full of dishes. The embarrassment on his face suddenly appeared, but he still felt a little comfort in his heart. After all, everyone ordered this dish to remind himself. , except Ziwei. It seems that Ziwei is still good to herself.
But not long after this idea appeared, Zhu Wei said again: "This is the three-whip tonic wine that my sister ordered for Brother Chouxin."
After Zhu Wei finished speaking, several girls burst into laughter.
Only then did Li Chouxin understand that the jealousy of these girls was hard to get rid of. Ziwei was the most ruthless person, but she had no choice but to swallow the kindness of these girls one by one. After all, she was in the wrong.
A few people teased Li Chouxin as he finished his lunch. Li Chouxin felt hot all over as soon as he got up. He must have taken too much food, but he didn't dare to say anything more.
Not long after everyone returned to their rooms, Li Chouxin made some preparations and was about to go out with three feet and three feet. At this time, several girls were already waiting at the door. After all, Pei Chen finally agreed to himself, but he was still unavoidably excited and wanted to go to the appointment earlier. Even if he waited there for a longer time, he was willing to do so.
"Brother Chouxin, I know you can't wait any longer, so we have been waiting for you for a while, so let us go with you." Ziwei said.
Li Chouxin knew that it was difficult to refuse at this time, so he agreed to take a few people with him.
Li Chouxin and a few people did not delay along the way, and arrived outside the ruined temple in the east of the city early.
Not long after they arrived, Zhang Xiaopan found out and asked, "What are you doing here? You are not welcome here." It seemed that Zhang Xiaopan had forgotten what he said when he was drunk the day before, and thought that Li Chouxin didn't know about Pei Chen. invitation.
But Zhu Wei couldn't bear it and said, "You little brat, didn't you come to send a message the day before yesterday saying that your eldest brother Pei Chen and my young master will compete here today?"
Zhang Xiaopan replied anxiously: "Nonsense, I only ate and drank with you the day before yesterday, and didn't make any promises or anything like that."
Zhu Wei replied: "Obviously you said it while drunk. Three days later, in the evening, there will be a competition in the ruined temple in the east of the city. Don't try to cheat."
Zhang Xiaopan tried hard to remember, but he really couldn't remember and wanted to continue to defend himself. At this time, a voice came from the closed temple, "Xiao Pan, there is no need to stop them, there is indeed an agreement."
Zhang Xiaopan saw that Pei Chen had already spoken, so he didn't say anything more.
"Mr. Chouxin, Mr. Pei has been wasting some days. He is still in seclusion at this time. He can only come out in the evening. Mr. Chouxin seems to have arrived early. Can you wait for Pei for a while?" Pei Chen came from the ruined temple again. sound.
"It's okay. I'm just worried that I can't wait for it to come too early. Brother Pei Chen, just stay in seclusion with peace of mind. When the time comes, you can come out to compete. You can just wait for your worries."
So, several people started chatting with Zhang Xiaopan outside. Several girls gathered around Zhang Xiaopan curiously, asking questions, and from time to time they gave Zhang Xiaopan some delicious snacks.
Li Chouxin found a stone, sat down, closed her eyes and waited for this moment to arrive.
The sun was setting, and the afterglow shone on the weeds that were higher than people's heads, swaying back and forth, like sword shadows cutting up the area in front of them. The sunset shone on everyone's face, and people became sentimental.
The door of the ruined temple slowly opened at this time. Pei Chen arranged his hair and walked out of it holding the wooden sword to banish the immortal. He stood next to the broken incense burner that was shattered by Li Chouxin's sword that day and faced Li Chouxin. , seems to have a heroic demeanor.
"Young Master, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"It doesn't matter, waiting is also a kind of practice." Li Chouxin replied.
Pei Chen nodded after listening to Li Chouxin's words and said: "In that case, let's get started, but Pei has something to say first. Regardless of victory or defeat today, Pei has something to rely on. I hope that the young master will not refuse at that time."
Li Chou didn't think much about it and said, "You and I are both generous people. Brother Pei's request, Chou Xin agreed."
After hearing Li Chouxin's answer, Pei Chen said, "Then please ask Brother Chouxin to draw the sword first!"
Li Chouxin stood on the stone with his sword in his hand and said, "It's up to you, the host, but Brother Pei Chen should draw the sword first!"
Seeing that no one was willing to draw the sword first, Zhang Xiaopan, who was standing far away, said: "None of you want to draw the sword first, so let's draw the sword together!"
After hearing this, the two expressed their acquiescence.
Both of them stood silently holding their swords. Suddenly the wind and grass stirred and dust flew everywhere. At the moment when the wind stopped, the two of them swung a sword intention towards each other. Li Chouxin swung a sword towards the sun, and saw a sword intention like sunlight sweeping through the withered grass on the ground towards Pei Chen. go.
Pei Chen swung out a sword intention that seemed to be feminine but was actually sharp, and swept through the grass and trees towards Li Chouxin's sword intention. This sword was called Fubo, and just like its name, it seemed to be as soft as an undercurrent, but in fact it was Gathering and surging.
Two powerful sword intentions collided, and a huge sound was accompanied by scattered weeds and rocks. For a moment, the sky was dark and the ground was dark, and the surrounding area was plunged into a gray mist. The two of them also took a few steps back as the sword intentions collided. One move equals the difference.
At this time, Pei Chen said: "After this move, it seems that the strength of the two of us is about the same. Let's each use our strongest move in the next move. How about deciding the outcome with one sword?"
After Li Chouxin took over one of Pei Chen's moves, she also sighed at Pei Chen's superb swordsmanship. Now she only knew two moves of Chang Geng Sword Intent, so she said: "That's exactly what I meant."
So both sides were brewing their own strongest moves.
Several girls watching the battle quickly asked Zhang Xiaopan: "What is your brother Pei's strongest move?"
Zhang Xiaopan also said: "I just heard from Brother Pei Chen that this move is called Raging Waves. I know that this sword intention is like the surging waves of the sea. It weakens the opponent's strength one by one, and finally draws the opponent into the dark and churning countless waves." The sword shadow is very powerful, but I have never seen Brother Pei Chen use it before."
Everyone was worried about Li Chou when they heard this, but it was too late to stop him at this time, and victory or defeat depended on this breath.
Li Chouxin knew that Pei Chen's swordsmanship should not be underestimated, so he rose into the air and swung a sword towards the ground. He saw that the sword turned into three thousand sword shadows and cut through the dense weeds on the ground. Thousands of weeds were wrapped around him. Three thousand sword shadows headed towards Pei Chen with a terrifying momentum.
Zhang Xiaopan saw this and knew that this sword was many times stronger than the one Li Chouxin had wielded on the street before, so he quickly warned Pei Chen to be careful.
Pei Chen opened his closed eyes and used his raging sword intent towards the thousands of approaching sword figures. He saw that the sword was rising and falling like rolling waves, as if everything it passed was covered by a wave of waves. Swallowed by a rolling wave, the weeds, earth and rocks on the ground also rose up, heading towards Li Chouxin's sword intention.
The two swords intersected. This round did not immediately erupt with huge collision power like the first sword. Li Chouxin's sword shadow was not immediately devoured after being wrapped by Pei Chen's raging waves. Instead, it continued to fly and remain in the package. Despite the resistance, the two sides were still evenly matched. I saw those sword shadows and weeds rolling into a ball between the two people, rolling bigger and bigger, and finally completely integrated into one. Then there was a huge noise, and then the ground shook. The dust was flying, and the onlookers were blinded by the huge residual power and light. As everything calmed down, a few people saw that the two fighting against each other were still standing in the same place, and no one stepped back this time.
"What is this? Who loses and who wins?" Zhang Xiaopan asked in time.
"Little brat, it's so obvious that you can't tell. It's a tie." Qinyin said.
The two fighting men also put away their swords at this time, and that was the end of it.
"Brother Pei Chen, your banishment of immortals and sword moves are exactly as the master said. It is really difficult to win at the moment. Pei's swordsmanship is indeed well-deserved." Li Chouxin said first.
When Pei Chen heard this, he also replied: "Young Master Chouxin has promoted me. I know that Master Chouxin has not used all his sword moves. If Master Chouxin used the third move, I will definitely be defeated."
Then the two laughed and walked towards each other, shaking hands and making peace.
"God's will! Back then, Master and Master Ling were tied, and now you and I are the same. It seems that there is a destiny somewhere." Li Chouxin said to Pei Chen.
But Pei Chen said: "Young Master Worried, how about you and I agree again to compete again one day after each has improved, and then we can compete again?"
Hearing Pei Chen's words, Li Chou was very happy and said, "That's great, it's settled. Could it be that Brother Pei Chen already has a new plan?"
At this time, several people watching the battle also came to the two men to check whether they were injured. Seeing that both of them were fine, they felt relieved.
At this time, Pei Chen looked at Zhang Xiaopan, and then said to Li Chouxin: "Mr. Chouxin, before the competition, I told you that I have something to ask of you. Now that we are tied, I would like to ask Master Chouxin to agree to Pei's request."
Several people were a little confused when they heard this, and Li Chouxin was also the same.
Pei Chen saw that several people were confused and called Zhang Xiaopan to him.
"Kneel down, Xiaopan! I have something to tell you." After Pei Chen finished speaking, Zhang Xiaopan knelt on the ground and faced him.
But Pei Chen said: "Xiao Pan, turn around and face Mr. Chouxin."
Although Zhang Xiaopan was puzzled, he still followed the instructions.
"Xiao Pan, you have been with me for many years. Although Brother Pei can protect you, this is not the best result after all. The Flying Elephant Technique you have practiced is also difficult to integrate with my swordsmanship, and following me has restricted your development. , the outside world is big and exciting, you should not be tied to Pei, today I will make the decision, big brother, to find a good mentor for you, and follow him from now on." Zhang Xiaopan burst into tears after hearing what Pei Chen said. Full face.
However, Pei Chen continued: "Young Master Chouxin, I know that this will inevitably cause some embarrassment to you, but I would like to ask Master Chouxin to accept Xiao Pan today and let him follow you. In my opinion, Mr. Chouxin's swordsmanship is Xiaopan's best. The path is suitable for cultivation, and Xiaopan is well-behaved and sensible, so he won’t embarrass the anxious young master.”
Seeing that Pei Chen had made up his mind, Zhang Xiaopan knelt on the ground and couldn't stop his tears from flowing down. He asked, "Brother Pei, do you not want me anymore?"
Pei Chen was also sad, but he still said: "Xiao Pan, you must be obedient. You promised me to listen to me that day, and today is the time to fulfill your promise. Following Mr. Chouxin is your best choice. Besides, you Brother Pei still has unresolved matters, and now it’s time to settle everything.”
"No, no matter where Brother Pei goes, I am willing to follow Brother Pei." Zhang Xiaopan said while crying.
Pei Chen became serious: "Xiao Pan, are you going to break your promise and not listen to Brother Pei?"
Zhang Xiaopan said nothing more, but kept crying.
"Young Master Chouxin, please don't refuse Pei's request." Pei Chen continued.
Li Chouxin hesitated for a moment, looked at Pei Chen, and said, "As long as Xiaopan is willing to follow Chouxin from now on, Chouxin will definitely give him all he has."
"That's good, Xiaopan, why don't you become a disciple soon!" Pei Chen said to Zhang Xiaopan again.
Zhang Xiaopan was a little reluctant. He looked at Pei Chen and saw that Pei Chen's eyes were firm and he had made up his mind. Zhang Xiaopan still kowtowed to Li Chouxin reluctantly: "Master is here, I accept my disciple's bow."
At this time, Li Chouxin hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Xiaopan and said, "Now that you have accepted me as your teacher, you can follow me from now on. Your name, Zhang Xiaopan, should be in the vast world."
Li Chouxin turned to Pei Chen again and asked, "Brother Pei Chen, I just said that something has been settled. Are you going to Xijing? Chouxin can also help."
But Pei Chen waved his hand and said: "This matter is my own business, Pei Chen, and I should settle it myself. Thank you Brother Chouxin for your kindness. I just hope that I will treat Xiaopan well in the future. If we are destined to work together in the future, we can work together again." Drink fine wine and compete.”
Li Chou also knew that Pei Chen's departure would be unlucky, so he entrusted Zhang Xiaopan to him. He wanted to go to Xijing alone to settle the old incident of the Pei family's extermination. He didn't try to persuade him anymore. He just said: "Brother Pei, please be careful when you go. Don't worry." Forget today's appointment, as for Xiao Pan, Brother Pei, just rest assured that I will treat you sincerely, and you will definitely appear in front of Brother Pei with an extraordinary appearance one day."
Pei Chen said "I hope this day comes sooner" and walked into the ruined temple without saying another word to Zhang Xiaopan.
Zhang Xiaopan kowtowed three times towards Pei Chen's walking back, wiped away his tears, looked firmly in his eyes, and shouted to Pei Chen: "Brother Pei, Xiaopan will not let you down, wait for Xiaopan."
After Zhang Xiaopan finished speaking, Pei Chen threw the wooden sword Banishing Immortal in his hand behind him, thrust it straight in front of Zhang Xiaopan, and said while walking towards the ruined temple: "Xiao Pan, we have just met each other, and I have nothing to give. You take this banished immortal, and I hope it will become famous all over the world with you in the future!"
After saying that, Pei Chen closed the temple door and broke up with Zhang Xiaopan.
Zhang Xiaopan faced the ruined temple, holding the wooden sword in his hand, and knelt on the ground for a long time looking at the ruined temple before he got up.
At this time, Ziwei stepped forward, came to Zhang Xiaopan, and said, "Xiao Pan, get up, we will be your family from now on, and your master and sisters will treat you well." After that, she helped Zhang Xiaopan up.
Seeing this, several girls also stepped forward to comfort Zhang Xiaopan.
Then Li Chouxin also left the ruined temple with Zhang Xiaopan and several girls.
In the ruined temple, Pei Chen watched several people leaving behind the door. His eyes couldn't help but get wet, but he was still very happy inside. After all, Zhang Xiaopan also had a new world from now on.
