Jade Maiden's Friend, Flower Cage Reappears, Confused Feelings, Yin-Yang Secret Pact

The woodshed was very narrow, built of yellow mud and gravel, with a door but no windows. Fearing that the two people he had taken in would suffocate, the farmer left the door open as he left, and the moonlight slanted in.

The White Boots were the same as Wen Caishang's.

The two Golden Cicada, changing their clothes. But their boots miraculously "survived." These White Boots were of excellent quality, with exquisite embroidery, and were spotless.

The farmers in these mountains need to store firewood all year round. They collect any scraps of branches and leaves they find along the way and put them into their woodsheds.

Over time, a considerable amount has accumulated.

It concealed their figures.

Wen Caishang's beautiful eyes were filled with murderous intent as she sat down on Li Xian, the soft sword in her sleeve flashing with a cold light. In this posture and manner, she seemed afraid that Li Xian would run away.

Li Xian inwardly cried out in despair, hiding from the pursuers along the way. He tried his best to conceal his "Double Pupils," knowing that this was difficult to explain. However, Zhao Zhiyuan's calamity was extremely fierce, leaving no room for concealment. Wen Caishang was quick-witted; deep in the dangerous mountains, she was constantly attacked by strange insects, making it difficult to concentrate. She would definitely ask her a question after she came out.

Wen Caishang said softly, "Li Lang, please speak properly..."

Li Xian said, "Madam... this Double Pupils..." Wen Caishang's fingers gently stroked the sword wound on Li Xian's chest, feeling both pity and resentment. She had never been in love before, but she adored Li Xian, and the more she touched him, the more her heart stirred, savoring the taste of love. Yet this boy was a master of lies, completely out of her control. She said, "Don't lie to me, I hate being lied to the most."

Li Xian said, "Madam... the matter of Double Pupils was something I awakened again after Perfect Aspect. I kept it a secret because... because..." He was extremely good at sophistry, but Wen Caishang was not easily fooled. At this moment, he had nothing to say.

Du Bo sighed inwardly, "If I could truly have such a devoted and attentive wife, I would be incredibly fortunate. If she were so ruthless, then the allure of gentle pleasures would surely break even the most heroic spirit."

Seeing the bustling crowds, thriving businesses, and lively traffic, with the aroma of cooking fires filling the air, I, who have lived in the mountains for so long, felt a deep sense of familiarity upon seeing this scene again.

Back then, holding Zhao Ranran, you were drenched in sweat, your emotions stirred. The Xiao Xian's flirtatious nature meant that with just a little initiative Lady Broken Sword, the mistress of the manor, would succumb.

The other Jianghu figures chimed in, saying, "As the host of this talent recruitment banquet, the hospitality was impeccable, but the wine and women were of Lower Vehicle. You have no reason to blame us."

Li Lang of the Southern King Palace was not pleased, but he was taciturn and saw them off in a friendly manner. Of the many Jianghu travelers in the hall, about 10% stayed and 80% left.

Zhao Ranran said angrily, "What a big shot!" Her anger and delight were both evident.

The sword's momentum shifted abruptly. The sun shone brightly, its light both expansive and restrained, illuminating the mountains and rivers. Zhao Ranran pursed her red lips again. The sword was hers to command; sword, heart, body... all were controlled by the Xiao Xian.

Zhao Ranran glanced at the jade crown, picked it up heavily, turned it around to examine it, and said, "Great Immortal, he is fourteen years old and it's time for him to wear a crown. Come here, and you can help him put on the crown."

Zhao Ranran introduced the history of the city. Eight thousand years later, the city was struck by a plague, which was extremely vicious. The Prince of Southern King Commandery invited physicians to prepare medicines and brought the plague under control, thus averting the destruction of the city.

Such business was quite common. To avoid trouble, and because Su Qiuwu and his group were trapped at Tiger-Cry Ridge, Du Bo still needed to make a high profile, so he readily agreed.

History books, both ancient and modern, are mostly filled with trivial matters. Those grand and dramatic events are hardly worthy of being recorded in history. The charm and atmosphere within them are uniquely alluring.

That day.

A handsome young man.

The intention was quite clear: "Those skilled in strength can move stones," and "those skilled in wisdom can enter the thicket." Du Bo placed his hand on the boulder, touched the ground with his toes, and skillfully lifted the boulder, carrying it several feet away.

Xiao Xian thought to herself, "Madam has escaped danger and has no suspicions about you. If you tell the truth, it will only make you more suspicious. You hate hearing sweet words, so you should say less." She said, "Yes, how could you lie to Madam? Only about the Double Pupils, you were afraid that Madam would be estranged because of it, so you... you kept it a secret and told her."

[The Waning Sun Blood-Draining Sword - Level 7]

Bathing Together in Sweet Dew, Live and Die Together, Piercing the Chest, the Waning Sun, Shattered Moon... all the young sword techniques were used one by one. Zhao Ranran had not yet Perfection the seventh level, and then practiced the eighth level for a short time. When she danced with the seventh level, her swordsmanship was more profound, so she focused on "yin" and used yang as a supplement.

Zhao Ranran was suddenly taken aback. Her thoughts were inexplicable, and she said softly, "Great Immortal, let's go and take our seats."

The music was melodious and pleasant, and the guests were all refined gentlemen. Xiao Xian and Zhao Ranran had a common air about them, but they were dressed appropriately. The restaurant owner dared not neglect them, arranging elegant seats for them and serving them delicious dishes one after another.

My voice was heavy and urgent, and the past events were fascinating and extraordinary, yet when I recounted them, they captivated the listener and soothed their emotions.

Zhao Ranran laughed and said, "Ordinary women, why bother with such formalities? Great Immortal, help him choose an outfit. It'll make him look incredibly handsome. He'll come with you..."

After the Xiao Xian crowed, Xiao Xian and Zhao Ranran left hand in hand. Though penniless, they were confident and retreated to the city to study.

"Wen Caishang may not have caused any trouble outside, but she just freeloaded and left, which is a bit of a scandal. If someone has any sense of decency to establish themselves in the Jianghu, they wouldn't dare to host a banquet."

The shopkeeper of the clothing store wanted to keep Du Boshu and Xiao Xian there, to have their portraits painted and pasted in the store to attract passersby.

The two returned home hand in hand. They bathed together, and before changing their clothes, they slept in the same bed. The Xiao Xian guarded her heart tightly, refusing to make any rash moves.

The two clinked glasses, completely forgetting their conversation from the previous night. The restaurant staff brought out dishes one after another, which they savored one by one, enjoying a unique and leisurely lifestyle.

Furthermore... Xiao Xian and Zhao Ranran traversed over a hundred miles, exiting the Tiger-Cry Ridge mountain range. They had left "Flowerwater Prefecture" and arrived at "Ridge Prefecture".

You poured tea, just enough to slightly fill the bottom of the cup. Then you added the Ridge Prefecture's specialty "oil sauce," and said, "He'll drink that, and then go taste the phoenix eggs."

The Southern King Palace's Mansion has a shallow reputation, so a single call to action is easily answered, making it quite easy to gain favor. The Xiao Xian thought, "Profit can lure people, fame can drive them. Combine fame and profit, raise your arms and shout, and the response will be overwhelming! There will be no shortage of people rushing to help with troubles."

It was a time of great learning, attracting scholars and poets to visit, admire the lanterns, and observe local customs and traditions.

I ate two, Younger Brother ate eight. When the two brothers were "dividing the spoils," they saw that the wealthy young men in the county could each eat a whole skewer and even eat them in different ways. When they got tired of the sweetness, they would give some to the servants.

That day, I passed by the Southern King Palace.

Zhao Ranran laughed and said, "If you want to freeload a meal, you need to have some real skills. That's a test set up by the Southern King Palace."

The two had been playing in Southern King Commandery for several days, but suddenly disappeared yesterday. It is assumed that they were captured by the Flower Cage Sect.

The boulder was extremely heavy. Essence Consumption martial artist could barely move it, and the surrounding bushes obscured the view. Zhao Ranran said, "Great Immortal, we've been thinking too little. Once we move the boulder, the path will be revealed."

The distance is too great for the Crimson List of wanted persons to reach this place. The vast sea of people forms a natural barrier. Even if the Sword-Hunting Alliance has no extraordinary abilities, it will be difficult to track them down.

Xiao Xian took a bite to taste. Du Boshu said, "Although that dish is an appetizer, there are still some rules to follow when tasting it."

Li Lang said, "That... that... that won't do. I invited you all to this banquet to cheer you up, heroes. Look at you all, drinking and having fun at my residence, yet you're still full of unspoken grievances and personal matters. Would you be happy to talk about them?"

"Indeed, the talent recruitment banquet is very hospitable. Come... let us all toast to the talent recruitment banquet."

The melodious sound of a pipa drifted through the air, accompanied by fragrant mist. A slender male servant, dressed in a colorful flowing skirt that barely concealed his skin, brought over a dish.

[The Yin-Yang Immortal Companions Sword glimpses the principles of Yin and Yang; the main layer of the Yang Sword contains "Secret Pact" moves hidden within its sword techniques.]

Fine food and wine were all served. The master of the mansion, "Li Lang," walked out on a seven-step gait.

The gates of the mansion were wide open, and notices were pasted on the stone walls on both sides, which read, "There is no banquet inside; all heroes of the Jianghu are welcome to take a seat."

The path was not yet revealed. The two walked a long way and came to a wide open lawn. There were more than ten four-person tables set up, and about eight out of ten people were sitting on them.

But the more expensive the clothes, the more beautiful you look, and the more exquisite your attire becomes. Xiao Xian paid for the clothes, thinking, "That beauty is truly hard to please. With your meager wealth, you can barely afford a decent set of clothes."

The fork in the road led on both sides, where the vegetation was meticulously maintained and vines hung down. But after walking about a hundred paces, it became increasingly noisy, with fewer and fewer miscellaneous branches, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.

The closer we get to the Qiongtian Prefecture.

After the banquet, the first dish served was a specialty of Ridge Prefecture: "Phoenix Eggs in Sour Vinegar." Its tangy and fragrant flavor was both appetizing and delightful.

Several dishes were served in succession. Zhao Ranran served Xiao Xian food and drinks with elegance and grace, her movements gentle and attentive. Those around her looked on with envy.

Zhao Ranran cleaved the boat with a single sword strike, a tense and expressive moment. However, carrying a huge boulder is definitely not your forte. Yet, you lacked the ability to pulverize the boulder.

Xiao Xian chose to sit at a table with more than one person. Seeing the stream flowing below the meadow and the birds singing in the clear sky, she said it was quite elegant.

Du Bo muttered, "Li Xian?"

Zhao Ranran felt a slight joy in her heart and gracefully poured tea for Xiao Xian. The Jianghu gently pushed his cup away, also wanting to be served tea by the beauty.

[Description: He Twin Swords in Harmony, reaching the Peak Mastery. His understanding of Yin and Yang was profound. Together with the master of the Yin Sword, he enjoyed the Yin-Yang Body Bath and Yin-Yang Soul Bath... He comprehended "Yang Origin Finger Sword" and "Yang Immortal Melody".]

The steward, dressed in a brocade robe and possessing a strong voice, though his strength was not great, said, "Heroes, the banquet is over there. Please take your seats." He pointed to a side path.

"By a twist of fate, you had no marriage contract. That Li Xian is a descendant of the Zhao Clan, and now he's heard of you."

Xiao Xian smoothed her hair ornament and said, "Madam... isn't this a bit too ostentatious?" Zhao Ranran asked, "Elder Brother, is he willing to accompany you?" Xiao Xian replied, "He'd rather risk his life to accompany Madam."

Master Ma said, "Madam, he keeps saying he wants to thank you in a naughty way. How will he thank you?" Zhao Ranran said, "You brat, are you trying to please me? You'll thank him yourself; he can just watch with a wicked grin."

After two days of sightseeing, we boarded a boat and left Southern King Commandery. Heading south, we enjoyed the journey at our leisure.

The Xiao Xian's sword technique was straightforward and elegant, but it lacked the grandeur of someone who wanted to look beyond a thousand miles and gaze at the surging heavens. As the two practiced swordsmanship, they became increasingly aware of the difference between them.

The monk ate worse than the two brothers.

"Or perhaps..."

The Xiao Xian was lost and uncertain about her future, unsure whether to stay or leave, and dared to take that first step. Zhao Ranran thought to herself, "That young master is full of cunning schemes and is definitely not truly honest. But why was he so wicked back then? Could it be... could it be that you punished me too harshly? I developed lustful thoughts towards you afterward, and you stabbed me with your sword. I... I'm afraid because of this?"

But even with the Twin Swords in Harmony and feelings exchanged, though it didn't quite meet your expectations, we still enjoyed ourselves immensely. We've practiced the first level a thousand times, now we move on to the seventh.

Xiao Xian stopped to watch. Zhao Ranran said, "That's Wen Caishang. What's wrong with getting some food for free?"

Li Lang looked distressed, and hesitated before saying, "You've all had too much to drink, alas... It's a rare occasion for heroes to gather here today. If it weren't for... if it weren't for this incident... alas! I really wanted to drink and have a good time with all of you heroes."

The Jianghu gave an awkward smile and drank alone. Zhao Ranran thought to herself, "That young master's intention to protect you hasn't changed." Her heart softened.

Lantern festivals, traditional folk festivals... you're interested in all sorts of them. Naturally, you enjoy strolling around, and wandering through the bustling city with Xiao Xian is a novel and joyful experience.

Zhao Ranran was stunningly beautiful; neither a simple dress nor a magnificent robe could conceal her beauty.

Suddenly, I felt immense regret. Everything you did was to control Xiao Xian, to hold my emotions and fears in your hands. You treated Du Bo as your own possession, wantonly using him. But at this moment, you can no longer treat Du Bo as an "object," how could you bear to use him? Yet your desire for control has not diminished, but rather intensified.

We had to keep it simple.

Zhao Ranran expressed her feelings, but still felt a sense of pent-up frustration, like scratching an itch through a boot.

Xiao Xian was furious. She went to Yi Yi Ge and spent several taels of silver to buy new clothes for the seven people.

The men snapped back to reality and, seeing that Zhao Ranran's appearance was also extraordinary, quickly withdrew their gazes. Zhao Ranran frowned slightly; the seven of them Twin Swords in Harmony along the way, their lust thickening. The more she looked at them, the more disgusted she became.

Du Boshu said, "When the time comes, we'll just pat our butts and leave." After saying that, he didn't make any move, but he wasn't the one patting his own butt.

At the end of the road, a huge rock blocked the way. Sparse bushes grew on both sides.

Du Bo recalled the past, how things had changed, and shook his head with a smile. He spent seven copper coins to buy two strings of food. He gave his wife one and himself one. As they ate, they talked about the past.

A fellow traveler at Jianghu table chuckled, "My friend, you're quite the handsome fellow. Where are you from? And who's that beside you...?"

The etiquette was the same in each dynasty. In Nanyang, girls wore crowns at the age of seventeen. Xiao Yu wore a crown at the age of fourteen. Xiao Wu followed Xiao Yu's custom and wore a crown at the age of fourteen, but there was no one who wore a crown at the age of seventy.

Zhao Ranran selected several outfits, all extremely expensive. Xiao Xian for her own finances, quietly reminded her. Zhao Ranran was secretly annoyed, thinking it spoiled her refined taste.

Zhao Ranran was already quite knowledgeable about the ways of the Jianghu world. The Xiao Xian was open-minded and easygoing, so she walked freely into the mansion.

Before having eaten and drunk her fill, Xiao Xian, to be on the safe side, hurried to the bustling city center to check the "Crimson List" of wanted persons. There were already "Heart-Eating Gentleman Li Renshan" and "Blood-Drinking Poisonous Woman Wen Shexie."

Zhao Ranran frowned and said calmly, "Gentlemen, is your eldest son bad-looking?"

"The lady has never schemed against you. Could it be... could it be that he still doesn't see your true feelings?"

"His background is certainly not good; he comes from Profound Dao Mountain. He is quite familiar with this Jade Man from Profound Dao Mountain. If we lend a helping hand, we are sure to get to know the Jade Man Li Xian."

Suddenly, everything seemed fresh and new. Zhao Ranran walked gracefully and calmly. The clothes were of slightly inferior quality, but when she wore them, they exuded a noble and elegant air.

Zhao Ranran clapped her hands and said, "Bad! Bad strength!" Martial artists are not known for brute force, therefore... even martial artists at a lower level may not be weak.

A conversation took place overnight.

The Xiao Xian, without making a sound, slammed the teapot down behind him, letting it land steadily. Xiao Xian said, "Brother, if you're thirsty, please help yourself. Your wife has a bad temper; it's better to have someone else serve her."

[His Swordsmanship Peak Mastery, earning him the "Secret Pact" and mastery of the "Sword Brand"... branding it into the master of the Yin Sword.]

Xiao Xian and Du Boshu were both taken aback. Du Boshu said, "Madam, let's go to sleep." Zhao Ranran nodded, somewhat reluctant, but could only change the subject.

Xiao Xian asked curiously, "Does Madam also dislike creating quiet?" Zhao Ranran rolled her eyes, poked Xiao Xian's chest with her finger, and said, "Why would you want to create any quiet? You know he loves quiet, but you're afraid of causing trouble."

The Southern King Commandery is preparing for a lantern festival.

The wandering Jianghu asked, "Is the talent recruitment banquet not so difficult? Please tell me, if you attend his banquet, what can you do to help him?"

[Familiarity: 36/80000, the Peak Mastery]

Li Lang then revealed everything. It turned out that... a few days later, a distant relative's nephew brought his girlfriend to visit my home.

Li Lang said, "If any of you lack the ability, please lend a hand. Your nephew is spoiled and pampered; he cannot endure the slightest grievance. Moreover... and the man accompanying you."

Xiao Xian followed the crowd, offering a toast from afar.

Zhao Ranran said, "It's all... because he's afraid of you?" Xiao Xian nodded. Zhao Ranran said emphatically, "This 'bad young master' from the beginning, he's been lying to you all along?"

(I guarantee a 10,000-word update tomorrow, and I think I'll finally win over the wife... Please vote for me!)

During the height of the Divine Catcher craze, I was well aware of the perilous nature of Tiger-Cry Ridge. I predicted that the two men who had fled into the mountains would not return. So I reported to the Sky Patrol Bureau that the criminals had been executed and the warrant for their arrest had been withdrawn.

The selected ingredients are not "phoenix eggs," but rather Tujia eggs, and the cooking process is simple yet complex.

Xiao Xian took a leisurely stroll. The Lantern Festival in Southern King City was quiet and ordinary, so he took his wife for a short trip and stayed for a few days.

Therefore, the city was named "Southern King City".

By the year, Xiao Xian had reached the age to wear a crown. She could marry and start a family. Xiao Xian took off her bamboo hairpin, letting her long hair fall loose. Du Boshu twirled her hair with her fair hands, gathered it up, and stood on tiptoe to put on the crown.

Each of the four tables was empty. The occupants were all Jianghu swordsmen, talented and outstanding individuals, though their appearance and demeanor were ordinary. They drank tea and wine, and chatted casually.

Master Ma said, "Fortunately, you had your wife with you; otherwise, you would have been deceived by those old foxes."

Tasting it as instructed, the flavors are endless.

Then, recounting the history of the Southern King, and mentioning his philandering nature and numerous wives and concubines, she suddenly murmured, "Although the Southern King didn't achieve much, he was devoted in love, though he was also a bit wicked. Great Immortal, he mustn't follow my example."

"So that's how it happened... everyone's been used as pawns. The Jianghu is a small place; there are too few fools like that. You two should calm down and listen to my silence. Then..."

Master Ma exclaimed, "Bad!"

Xiao Xian, feeling carefree, took Du Boshu sightseeing, which was very enjoyable. After about seven or eight days, they arrived at the county seat of Southern King Commandery Ridge Prefecture.

The Jianghu heroes were filled with righteous indignation and determined to help. Although Xiao Xian liked the Flower Cage Sect's evil deeds, she feared that the heavens would be in chaos. However, she thought that they were outnumbered and their abilities were limited, so she could hardly make a difference. Therefore, she left hand in hand with Zhao Ranran.

Xiao Xian said, "It's absolutely true. Could it be... that the perilous journey was enough to prove your sincerity? If you were lying to him, why would you risk your life to protect him?"

"Brother Ma, he is too pedantic!" said the guest, "We have drank wine and had banquets, and we are now friends. If he recognizes you as friends, please just tell him! Humph, of course... you still drank the wine!"

He drank eight cups in a row, quite unrestrained.

turn out to be...

The realm of martial arts is the soil; what kind of flowers and fruits it yields depends on the martial artist's own learning and practice.

Zhao Ranran hesitated, her beautiful eyes filled with reproach.

Zhao Ranran laughed and said, "He saw the dangers inside too. He even did some really naughty things."

At this moment, having escaped a minor difficulty, our State of Mind is the same. What we enjoy, experience, see, and feel is naturally the same. Zhao Ranran is the same; in your entire life, you have never traveled with a woman.

Although the journey ahead is long, it is already extremely dangerous.

Xiao Xian smiled mischievously, stretched, and said, "With this move, we've finally escaped completely." Zhao Ranran said, "Yes."

Xiaoxian understood. "Li Lang recruits talented people and wants to take advantage of them. Those Jianghu people take the initiative to help, and they also want to make connections and increase their reputation."

Zhao Ranran whispered in his ear, "The preparations for Wen Caishang must be some trivial matter that has caused trouble in the manor. Someone needs to take care of it. For such matters... that Li Lang will most likely organize two events at Du Boshu. One will be in the Inner Court, where all the attendees will be anonymous people who have received invitations. The other will be in the outer courtyard, where all the attendees will be Jianghu arts practitioners. If there are no powerful figures among the wandering practitioners, they will be invited to the inner courtyard to sit down and discuss matters in detail."

But it always tastes like fine food from a restaurant, reflecting the local flavors. This "Drunken Spring Residence" has no famous dishes, and no men playing the pipa.

Xiao Xian recalled her two lifetimes and realized that Qingning County had never seen such a grand scene. It was called "Gathering". At this time of year, the streets were crowded with people, yet it was eerily quiet. When she was young, she would go to the market with her father and loved to buy candied fruit skewers... each skewer contained no more than seven sour and fragrant fruits.

The next day.

After tidying her up like that, Du Boshu was deeply moved. Xiao Xian's long hair was neatly arranged, her face was completely covered, her eyebrows were extremely proud, and she was both heroic and reserved.

The clothing storehouse was of poor quality, but those who changed clothes there were all very wealthy. Young ladies from humble families, male relatives of officials, and beautiful women from upscale houses... came frequently. Everyone who came to look at her was captivated by Xiao Xian short stature and beautiful face. They were all mesmerized. The entire household stared in astonishment.

I bowed and apologized, though my wording was rather rude. "It is a great pleasure to have you all grace us with your presence. My humble abode is truly honored. I was momentarily distracted by other matters and was unable to offer a toast and drink with you immediately; I am truly sorry. I, Ma, will punish myself with eight cups."

Zhao Ranran said softly, "Li Xian, we've escaped danger this time, Cai Shang should thank him profusely!" She then offered him tea and wine.

Master Ma then spoke. Zhao Ranran said, "Most of the guests here know the key points. They are grateful and indebted to us, and they will definitely recount their grievances at this banquet. Those people, filled with Intent-Qi and indignation, will boast that they can help resolve the matter."

"To put it bluntly, I don't really care much about those hosting this banquet. But those kinds of people, even if you stab them in the back, they'll still be all smiles."

Xiao Xian was clean and bright, dressed in simple yet sophisticated attire. Yet, her reserved yet elegant demeanor was hard to conceal. She straightened her long hair, tied it up before leaving for school, and fastened it with a bamboo hairpin.

Zhao Ranran picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth vigorously, saying in a seductive voice, "Li Xian, how is it?" The Xiao Xian replied, "Absolutely delicious."

After changing clothes, it's time to enjoy some food. Xiao Xian's cooking skills are terrible, but she manages to create unique dishes from wild ingredients.

As soon as Xiao Xian and Zhao Ranran appeared, everyone's attention turned to them. Xiao Xian cupped her hands and nodded, indicating her friendliness to everyone. Zhao Ranran, however, kept her hands in her sleeves and didn't bother to respond.

The next day.

Xiao Xian shuddered, and with the seventh level of the Waning Sun Blood-Draining Sword, she stepped into the "Peak Mastery" realm. Passive turned into active, and Yin-dominant-Yang-supported became Yang-dominant-Yin-supported.

Zhao Ranran said, "If he hides it from you, what can you do to him? Humph." Xiao Xian said, "If you... if you hide it from him, I'll cut off your hands and feet, and then you'll be at peace."

Du Boshu suddenly said with a hint of resentment, "The Double Pupils is truly formidable." Xiao Xian said, "Madam, you must stop now, you're still hiding it from him."

"Bad daughter, bad daughter..." Zhao Ranran was delighted and stroked my face again. The two of them were very affectionate, completely oblivious to the people around them.

Zhao Ranran said in a panic, "Yes... Li Xian... don't think like that, you... you are also sincere to him, you have seen his sincerity, you... you will treat him badly, we will both be bad." You are vicious and selfish, when has you ever said a single soft word in the face of life and death? But at this moment, those words came out of her mouth.

In a desolate wilderness, Xiao Xian and Zhao Ranran once again joined forces with their swords. The seventh level of their sword technique was executed naturally. The Du Bo tree, though gentle, seemed determined to erode the hero's bones and soften the girl's heart.

Your swordplay is so lingering and intricate, it entangles and binds the Xiao Xian. When you reach the seventh level of refinement, your joy is palpable, and you express your delight with unrestrained ease. After a sword dance, you say, "Li Xian, we already have something to practice in the first level. From now on... let's focus solely on the seventh level!"

That night, after a night of revelry, the two retreated into the mountains and forests. Their Twin Swords in Harmony, expressing their tender feelings. Zhao Ranran's sword was soft, but its momentum was as turbulent as cold waves, as if deep in thought, each strike aimed to bind Xiao Xian tightly.

Wandering through the quiet street scenes, there was no unique charm. I enjoyed the lantern displays, watched acrobatics, iron flower performances, and operas... I savored them all. Does Qingning County have such tranquility? Although I have visited few Xiao Xian towns, they were all just fleeting stops.

Zhao Ranran softened and nestled against my chest, saying, "Was what he said true or false?"

Master Ma said, "Poor Celestial Person, that's your wife." The Jianghu said, "Bad... your wife is bad..." feeling quite disappointed.
