The Competition Approaches

Xi Jingxuan looked rather delicate as she walked amid the sea of people, like a dazzling pearl that shone with exceptional brilliance.

The martial artists passing nearby would instinctively look over, marveling at her beauty.

But upon seeing the emptiness and lack of focus in her eyes, they could not help but guess that there might be something wrong with them.

No wonder she had to be supported as she walked.

Alas.

Such a beautiful woman, yet afflicted with an eye disease—it truly made one's heart ache.

"Li'er."

Walking along the road, Xi Jingxuan softly asked, "Have you seen Sect Master Jun?"

Wonderful Flower Palace had not entered the Dragon Tiger Competition, but Eternal Sect had. Thus, the moment she learned of it, she rushed over.

"Palace Mistress."

Li'er said helplessly, "You've asked eight hundred times already!"

"Have I!"

Xi Jingxuan counted in her heart and said, "I seem to remember asking only eighty times."

Li'er: "..."

Ever since the Palace Mistress met that man, she had been unable to get him out of her mind. Could she really have developed feelings for him?

"Li'er."

Xi Jingxuan said, "Look more carefully."

Li'er perfunctorily said, "Palace Mistress, there are too many people..."

She stopped abruptly halfway through.

Because the corner of her eye happened to sweep across a certain direction, where she spotted the approaching—Jun Changxiao!

"Palace Mistress Xi."

Jun Changxiao said, "What a coincidence, meeting in Great Venerable Imperial City."

Hearing the familiar voice, Xi Jingxuan hurriedly turned around. A delighted smile blossomed on her face as she said, "Sect Master Jun!"

Li'er: "..."

The Palace Mistress had previously insisted on going to Hundredfold Holy Sect, only to be forcibly stopped by the elders. She had been gloomy ever since, yet now she smiled the moment she met that man.
