Eavesdropping on Inner Thoughts, Yunxiao Draws Her Sword Against Dingguang Immortal at the Start - Part 5

"Junior Sister Yunxiao, what did you mean by that just now?"

Li Xiao could naturally feel that Yunxiao's gaze towards him was unusual, and he couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"Senior Brother Li Xiao, I came here to ask Senior Brother Li Xiao about the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts that Teacher taught!"

Yunxiao hesitated for a moment, preparing to test Li Xiao.

"What? Elder Sister is actually asking this good-for-nothing for advice?"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao were stunned, almost unable to believe their ears.

When Teacher was lecturing, this good-for-nothing was fast asleep. If he knew the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, pigs would fly!

[Eight-Nine Arcane Arts? I already know the Nine Revolutions Arcane Arts. A mere Eight-Nine Arcane Arts won't stump me, but I can't let others know. After all, I was sleeping when Teacher was lecturing...]

Just then, Li Xiao's voice echoed in Yunxiao's mind again.

Yunxiao was shocked and exclaimed, "I didn't expect Fifth Senior Brother to know the Nine Revolutions Arcane Arts! No wonder Fifth Senior Brother was sleeping when Teacher was explaining the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts..."

"Uh, Junior Sister Yunxiao, I... I don't know the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts either. You should find someone else!"

Li Xiao looked at Yunxiao and shrugged.

You know the Nine Revolutions Arcane Arts, but you don't know the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts?

Yunxiao pouted and looked at Li Xiao with a resentful expression.

[Ugh? Why is Junior Sister Yunxiao looking at me like that? That resentful gaze is truly heartbreaking. Could it be that Junior Sister Yunxiao really likes me?]

Li Xiao's inner thoughts echoed in Yunxiao's mind again.

Yunxiao's pretty face flushed red, and she glared at Li Xiao with a hint of annoyance.

"Is Fifth Senior Brother in the cave dwelling?"

Just then, a voice sounded from outside the cave dwelling.

"Chang'er Dingguang Immortal, what is he doing here?"

Li Xiao was bewildered.

After a moment of hesitation, Li Xiao said, "Come in!"

A moment later, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal walked in.

Li Xiao's old face immediately shifted from sunny to gloomy, turning as dark as the bottom of a pot. He looked coldly at Dingguang Immortal and asked in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Dingguang, why are you looking for this humble Taoist?"

"Uh? Why is Fifth Senior Brother treating Dingguang Immortal like this?"

Yunxiao was bewildered and filled with suspicion.

When they came to see Li Xiao, although he was a bit slovenly, his face was beaming with joy and his attitude was very friendly. But towards Chang'er Dingguang Immortal, his attitude was like seeing an annoying person.

This made Yunxiao very confused.

[Hmph, Dingguang Immortal will betray my Intercepting Sect in the future. Should I get rid of him?]

[Alas, forget it. Dingguang Immortal hasn't betrayed the sect yet. If I kill him, I fear Teacher will hold me accountable. Besides, my strength is not enough right now. I'll deal with it later!]

Just then, Li Xiao's inner thoughts echoed in Yunxiao's mind again.

What?

Dingguang Immortal is going to betray the sect?

Upon hearing this, Yunxiao's eyes suddenly flashed with cold light, and she looked at Chang'er Dingguang Immortal with shock and anger.

Yunxiao now completely believed Li Xiao.

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal also felt Li Xiao's hostility, and his brow furrowed. He didn't know why Li Xiao was treating him this way. After hesitating, he cupped his hands towards Li Xiao and said, "Fifth Senior Brother, Teacher has summoned you!"

"Oh, I understand. You may go,"

Li Xiao said indifferently.

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal cupped his hands towards Li Xiao, then towards the Three Xiao sisters, and turned to leave.

"Junior Sister Yunxiao, Teacher is calling me..."

After Chang'er Dingguang Immortal left, Li Xiao turned to Yunxiao and said.

"Oh, Fifth Senior Brother, you should go. We will take our leave as well!"

Yunxiao quickly cupped her hands towards Li Xiao, then took Qiongxiao and Bixiao and walked out.

Li Xiao also left Fifth Peak and rode the clouds towards Biyou Palace.

Along the way, Yunxiao was somewhat dispirited.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao saw this and were filled with suspicion.

"Elder Sister, is something troubling you?"

Bixiao couldn't hold back any longer and asked.

Yunxiao opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't know how to say it.

After all, the matter was too unbelievable. She had heard Li Xiao's inner thoughts and knew that Chang'er Dingguang Immortal was going to betray the sect, but she had no concrete evidence.

Also, if she said something, wouldn't that be selling Li Xiao out too?

Seeing Yunxiao remain silent, Qiongxiao gritted her teeth and asked, "Eldest Sister, have you fallen for Fifth Senior Brother?"

"Ah?"

Yunxiao blushed deeply, looking at Qiongxiao and Bixiao with a mixture of shock and anger. "You two little brats, don't talk nonsense!"

"Eldest Sister, it's not that we're talking nonsense. It's just that you visited Fifth Senior Brother for no reason, and the way you look at him is clearly different. You..."

Qiongxiao blurted out everything she had been holding back.

"Eldest Sister, with someone like you, what kind of person can't you find? Why must you fall for a good-for-nothing like Fifth Senior Brother..." Bixiao said anxiously.

Yunxiao's pretty face turned red with shame. She glared at the two sisters and said urgently, "Nonsense! I don't like Senior Brother Li Xiao at all. It's just... it's just..."

"Just what? Eldest Sister, you still won't admit you like Fifth Senior Brother?" Qiongxiao pressed relentlessly.

"Aiya, I can't explain it to you!"

Yunxiao didn't know how to explain to Qiongxiao and Bixiao, so she simply stopped talking and flew away on her cloud.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao exchanged glances and said in unison, "Something's wrong!"

With that, the two sisters went to chase after Yunxiao.

The Three Xiao sisters left Golden Ao Island and headed towards Three Immortal Island.

On the way, they suddenly saw a Taoist priest flying on a cloud. Who else could it be but Chang'er Dingguang Immortal?

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal also saw the Three Xiao sisters. After a moment of hesitation, he stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Greetings, three junior sisters. This humble Taoist offers his respects!"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao hurriedly bowed to Chang'er Dingguang Immortal, cupping their hands. "Greetings, senior brother!"

Yunxiao, however, stood frozen, her beautiful eyes flickering with cold light. She glared at Chang'er Dingguang Immortal through gritted teeth.

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal was also bewildered, not understanding why Yunxiao harbored such strong hostility towards him.

"Junior Sister Yunxiao, what is this..." Chang'er Dingguang Immortal frowned deeply, full of suspicion.

"Eldest Sister, what's wrong?" Bixiao tugged at Yunxiao's sleeve and asked.

"Eldest Sister, this is Senior Brother Dingguang Immortal. Don't you recognize him..." Qiongxiao also quickly reminded her.

Ever since they left Golden Ao Island, Yunxiao's state had been off.

"I know he's Dingguang Immortal..."

Yunxiao still glared at Chang'er Dingguang Immortal through gritted teeth. Suddenly, she flipped her hand, revealing an immortal sword, and glared at Chang'er Dingguang Immortal. She spoke in a deep voice, "Dingguang Immortal, die!"

With that, she swung her sword towards Chang'er Dingguang Immortal.

Chapter 6: Yunxiao Draws Her Sword Against Dingguang Immortal, The Intercepting Sect Explodes

How could Chang'er Dingguang Immortal have expected Yunxiao to suddenly draw her sword and attack him?

Caught off guard, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal was wounded in the shoulder by Yunxiao's sword. Blood flowed freely, causing him to grimace in pain as he retreated rapidly. He looked at Yunxiao with shock and anger, his eyes red, and roared, "Yunxiao, what madness is this?"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao were also greatly alarmed, not understanding why Yunxiao would suddenly draw her sword and attack Dingguang Immortal.

"Eldest Sister, what are you doing? This is Senior Brother Dingguang Immortal..." Qiongxiao exclaimed.

"Yes, Eldest Sister, what's wrong?" Bixiao also exclaimed.

"Hmph, it is precisely because he is Dingguang Immortal that I must strike him!"

Yunxiao looked at Chang'er Dingguang Immortal with great anger and shouted, "Dingguang Immortal, die!"

With that, she brandished her immortal sword and slashed at Chang'er Dingguang Immortal.

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal was startled and quickly turned, transforming into a stream of light and fleeing into the distance.

How could Yunxiao let Chang'er Dingguang Immortal escape? She pursued him with her sword, shouting, "Dingguang Immortal, even if you flee to the ends of the earth today, I will still kill you!"

"Yunxiao, you lunatic! How have I offended you, that you wish to kill me?" Chang'er Dingguang Immortal felt incredibly wronged at this moment. Angrily, he shouted as he fled for his life.

The two chased and fled, covering billions of miles in an instant.

Soon, they arrived back at Golden Ao Island.
