Xue Yue's white tasseled gown hung down to her ankles.
Her silver hair draped over her shoulders, and her face, untouched by powder or paint, was fair and exquisitely delicate, carrying an aloof, ethereal calm between her brows.
At just four feet ten inches tall, she looked especially petite and dainty.
His master's wife was actually such a fairy-like, white-haired loli?
Chu Xuan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he was completely dumbfounded.
He knew Dugu Linglong's cultivation and understood her attainments in both the Dao and martial arts.
He was not surprised that she had forced back the man who had been pursuing him.
What truly left him unable to recover was that behind that screen stood such an unimaginably beautiful face!
If he had known, why the hell would he have come down the mountain?
Wouldn't it have been far better to stay halfway up the mountain practicing swordsmanship, regularly visit the main peak to seek instruction in martial arts, and peacefully remain by his master's wife's side than to come to the Imperial Capital and hit walls everywhere?
Thinking back on it now, Chu Xuan wished he could go back and slap his past self across the face!
[Ding! Child of Destiny Chu Xuan learned Dugu Linglong's true appearance, was shocked and regretful, Emotion Points +26666!]
Jiang Che stood beside Liu Ruyan. Hearing the prompt in his mind, his gaze casually swept across Chu Xuan's face.
He saw the other man's stunned, absent-minded expression perfectly clearly.
However, Jiang Che said nothing.
Dugu Linglong had clearly noticed Chu Xuan's odd state as well, and her cool brows furrowed slightly.
"Can you still sit steadily?"
Chu Xuan abruptly snapped back to his senses.
"Yes, this disciple can."
He hurriedly braced himself against the broken wall and adjusted his posture.
