In the Dou Qi Continent, a Talent Trait Every Day — Chapter 33

"I didn't expect you to be so popular in the Misty Cloud Sect. You stopped them with just one sentence." Xiao Yi Xian secretly poked half her head out and cautiously observed the situation outside.

Only now did she realize that Xu Qi was no ordinary disciple in the Misty Cloud Sect.

But she hadn't expected his prestige to be this great.

"Could your true identity be the Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect?" she asked.

"...You're imagining too much." Xu Qi broke into a cold sweat.

Being the Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect wasn't so easy.

You needed both strength and background.

"For now, you can stay here. Just help clean the Dou Qi Pavilion from time to time," Xu Qi said.

There were indeed many things he hadn't considered thoroughly enough.

But now that things had come to this, they could only take it one step at a time.

"Okay." Naturally, Xiao Yi Xian had no objections. It was just that the Misty Cloud Sect disciples' enthusiasm made her a little scared...

Over the following days, Xu Qi personally brought Xiao Yi Xian around the Dou Qi Pavilion, allowing the people of the Misty Cloud Sect to gradually get familiar with her.

Many people were stunned by Xiao Yi Xian's beauty.

The Misty Cloud Sect did not lack beautiful women.

For example, Nalan Yanran. For example, Yun Yun.

But setting aside their lofty status and the fact that they were beyond reach—

From the perspective of beauty alone, who would complain about having too many beauties in their sect?

They wished there were dozens more!

Moreover, with Xu Qi around, no one dared harbor any designs on Xiao Yi Xian.

After all, Xu Qi still held great prestige within the sect.

Just like that, more than a month quietly passed.

Xiao Yi Xian lived well in the Misty Cloud Sect and had gradually grown accustomed to life here.

Even without Xu Qi accompanying her, she could enter the Dou Qi Pavilion alone to clean it, and no one dared do anything to her.

After all, although Xiao Yi Xian was an outsider, her combat strength was far from poor.

On the contrary, during her month or so in the Dou Qi Pavilion, Xiao Yi Xian had gained quite a lot.

Coupled with the fact that she had awakened the Calamity Poison Body earlier, she now possessed the constitution to cultivate.

Although the Calamity Poison Body was currently sealed, it did not affect her cultivation.

She was already a nine-star Dou Zhe, and her progress had been very fast.

Combined with all kinds of medicinal powders, even an ordinary Dou Shi might not be able to gain an advantage against her.

"So, you've been in the Misty Cloud Sect for a while now. Does this place live up to your expectations?"

In the room, Xu Qi asked with a smile.

Xiao Yi Xian thought seriously for a moment, then nodded with an earnest expression. "It's alright. It feels quite good. The people here are all very kind, and they treat me well too."

Compared to Qingshan Town, the atmosphere here was indeed much better.

Of course, she also knew that a large part of the reason for that was Xu Qi.

"That's good."

Xu Qi had actually been afraid that Xiao Yi Xian might not like the atmosphere here, yet keep it bottled up without saying anything.

"But if you ever feel unhappy here, you have to tell me. We can leave. You don't need to force yourself."

He spoke seriously.

"I won't. I truly think this place is quite nice. There isn't so much scheming and deception." Xiao Yi Xian shook her head.

"And as long as you're here, I feel happy."

She smiled faintly, revealing a beautiful smile.

Xu Qi held her soft, jade-like hand, his gaze burning.

The atmosphere in the air gradually turned ambiguous.

No words were needed. Some things could be conveyed with nothing but a glance.

Xiao Yi Xian's pretty face flushed again. She could already guess what Xu Qi wanted to do. Slowly closing her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled gently like dancing sprites, looking exceptionally lovely.

Xu Qi did not hold back either. With a slight exertion of his arm, the girl's soft body fell into his embrace.

Just as Xu Qi was about to lean in, a knock sounded from outside.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Three rhythmic knocks, neither too soft nor too loud, yet they exploded in their hearts like a bomb.

Xiao Yi Xian was so startled that she immediately opened her eyes and hurriedly pulled herself out of Xu Qi's embrace, her heart racing like a startled deer.

Xu Qi did not feel much, other than being rather unhappy.

Who was it?!

Who was so inconsiderate as to interrupt him at a time like this?!

Filled with resentment, Xu Qi strode to the door. As he opened it, he was already prepared to give whoever stood outside a thorough scolding.

But then—

The beautiful face at the door instantly made Xu Qi feel as though he had fallen into an endless abyss of ice, his entire body turning cold in an instant.

"Y-Yun Yun?!"

That was right—the visitor was Yun Yun!

Xu Qi felt like his heart was about to explode.

Why had Yun Yun come at this time?

He had been mentally prepared for Yun Yun and Xiao Yi Xian to meet sooner or later.

But because of what had happened in the cave back then, Yun Yun's attitude toward him was not very good for the time being.

Moreover, Yun Yun had not been in the sect during this period, which was why Xu Qi had not taken the initiative to seek her out.

Yet he had never expected Yun Yun to suddenly appear at precisely this moment.

And Xu Qi had every reason to suspect that she had deliberately come at this time.

"You came back without even saying a word?" Yun Yun's cool eyes swept over Xu Qi before naturally falling upon Xiao Yi Xian inside the room.

"Who is this little sister?"
