Ye Lingxi didn't believe that Su Chen had just taken out an ordinary gourd. After all, Su Chen wouldn't be so bored as to use an ordinary gourd to tease her.
Su Chen said, "This gourd is called the God-Slaying Flying Dagger."
" God-Slaying Flying Dagger?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingxi looked puzzled. "Isn't this a gourd? How is it related to throwing knives?"
Su Chen chuckled, "The throwing knife is inside this gourd..."
After that, Su Chen gave a detailed explanation of the God-Slaying Flying Dagger.
After a moment, having heard the introduction to the God-Slaying Flying Dagger, Ye Lingxi's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "This God-Slaying Flying Dagger is that powerful?"
Su Chen nodded and said, "It is indeed a fine treasure."
Ye Lingxi said, "Then in the future, if I want to use it in battle, I just need to say, 'My darling, please turn around,'"
Su Chen shook his head and said, "No need."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingxi was taken aback. "No need?"
Su Chen nodded and said, "Yes, you can use it to kill whoever you want in the future."
As he spoke, he glanced at the God-Slaying Flying Dagger, "Is everything alright?"
The God-Slaying Flying Dagger trembled slightly, as if to say, "No problem."
Ye Lingxi chuckled, "Then I have another killer move now, brother, you're so kind!"
As she spoke, she couldn't resist kissing Su Chen on the cheek.
Su Chen was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
Ye Lingxi sat back down on the stone bench, looked at Su Chen, and smiled, "Brother, you don't mind, do you?"
If you look closely, you'll see that Ye Lingxi's face is completely red, but because it's nighttime, it's not so obvious.
Actually, she just acted impulsively and kissed him without thinking.
It wasn't until the kiss that she realized she was all grown up and couldn't act like a child anymore. But since she had already kissed him, there was no use in regretting it, so she could only pretend to be calm.
Su Chen shook his head and smiled, "Silly girl."
Ye Lingxi stuck out her tongue, a smile spreading across her face.
Looking at Ye Lingxi, Su Chen seemed to remember something. After a moment of silence, he called out, " Lingxi."
Ye Lingxi asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Su Chen said, "Why don't you stay by my side from now on and stop cultivating so hard?"
Ye Lingxi remained silent for a long time, then shook her head, "No."
Su Chen said, "I don't want to see you suffer anymore."
Ye Lingxi smiled. "It's just a little hardship, I can handle it."
"Sigh~"
Su Chen sighed and then said, "To be honest, I'm already invincible, so you don't need to train so hard. I'll always protect you..."
"Elder brother!"
Ye Lingxi suddenly shouted, interrupting Su Chen.
Su Chen's lips moved, but he ultimately kept them closed.
Ye Lingxi looked up at the night sky and slowly said, "Brother, do you know why I'm cultivating so hard?"
Su Chen paused for a moment, then asked, "Why?"
Ye Lingxi looked at Su Chen and smiled, "Because I want to stand in front of you and protect you, instead of hiding behind you like a useless little girl."
Su Chen said, "But it's very bitter."
Ye Lingxi shook her head and said, "I don't care."
Su Chen remained silent.
Ye Lingxi's gaze was firm. "Protecting my brother is the purpose of my cultivation. If I have to hide behind my brother all the time, what's the point of my cultivation? So brother, please don't try to persuade me anymore, okay?"
Su Chen remained silent for a long time, then took a deep breath and sighed, "Okay."
A smile appeared on Ye Lingxi's face, as radiant and captivating as a spring flower in full bloom.
Su Chen said, "If you ever get tired, just tell me. I'll protect you forever."
Ye Lingxi nodded emphatically, "Mmm!"
Su Chen shook his head and smiled, "Alright, it's getting late, let's go back and rest."
Ye Lingxi nodded and said, "Okay, brother, you should get some rest too."
With that, she got up and went back to her room.
The night sky is filled with the bright moon, casting its silvery light, surrounded by countless stars, creating a dreamlike and enchanting scene.
Su Chen looked up, his eyes revealing a complex emotion.
Since this is her choice, you should respect it.
Su Chen said with a complicated expression, "You know how difficult the path of Dao of Invincibility. One wrong step and you'll perish, and even I might not be able to revive you."
[But this is her choice, what's the use of your worry? Besides, since she chose this path, she must be prepared to bear all the consequences. What you need to do is help her when she's in danger, not stop her.]
Su Chen gazed at the night sky, remaining silent.
After watching her for a long time, she suddenly shook her head and smiled, "You're right. I only need to help her when she's in danger, not stop her. Thank you."
It's good that you've figured it out.
Su Chen smiled slightly, then got up and returned to his house.
The quiet night slowly faded into the distance as the morning sun shone on the ground, warming the chill of the previous night.
Yan Qingwu got up early in the morning to make breakfast.
Hu Xiaotian came out of the house, his eyes lit up at the aroma in the air, and then he went to the kitchen.
While busy at work, Yan Qingwu looked at Hu Xiaotian and smiled, "Awake? Then go and Xiao Chen and Lingxi up for breakfast."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and turned to leave the kitchen.
At the same time, two figures appeared Mystic Hall.
They were a woman and an old man.
The woman wore a flowing, shimmering fairy dress, her figure graceful and her steps like lotus blossoms. She had a beautifully shaped oval face, her skin as white as snow, and her long hair swayed in the breeze. She exuded an extremely proud and aloof aura.
The old man had white hair and a face like ancient tree bark, yet it revealed a calm and composed demeanor born from a life of experience.
He followed the woman respectfully, like a servant.
The woman looked at the Mystic Hall before her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "This Mystic Hall is quite grand."
The old man replied respectfully, "Yes, after all, the Mystic Hall is no ordinary force."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Miss, are you really here to break off the engagement?"
The woman calmly replied, "If it weren't true, why would I be here?"
The old man said worriedly, "But what if the master finds out..."
Anger flashed in the woman's eyes. "I'm in charge of my own life, and no one can interfere, not even my father!"
The old man said helplessly, "Alright."
As he spoke, he cautioned, "From what I understand, this Mystic Hall is not simple. Please be polite, Miss, to avoid angering them."
The woman looked at the old man and said coldly, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
The old man's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "No... I wouldn't dare..."
"Snort!"
The woman scoffed, "I'm not stupid, do I need you to remind me?"
