After practicing the ruthless way, the little sister is too strong

At dawn the next day, Xia Ling left the inn early for fear of keeping Gu Yuanzhou waiting for a long time and went to the place where they had agreed to meet yesterday.

As soon as I arrived nearby, I saw from afar a limping figure holding a wooden stick approaching this side.

With the blessing of spiritual power, cultivators can almost ignore the distance that is relatively far and blurry to ordinary people, so Xia Ling saw it clearly.

Gu Yuanzhou was wearing the same coarse white clothes as yesterday, and his short dry and yellow hair was messy in the morning breeze.

His face was still pale, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and even his lips were a little pale, making him look weak and powerless, as if he would be blown down by the wind at any time.

Although it was summer, the morning still brought a slight chill. With the morning light behind him, he walked slowly forward, holding a wooden stick.

...can be described as embarrassing.

The expression on Xia Ling's face froze slightly, and before he could see her, she dodged to the side.

Damn it, she knew that his leg was injured, so why didn’t she think that the distance to the appointment would be too far for him?

She should have said she was going to his place to look for him.

"..."

Xia Ling let out a breath, leaned quietly against the corner of the alley, and waited for him to walk to the stall where he was yesterday.

[Since you blame yourself, why don't you help him? ] Xiao Jin didn't understand.

Xia Ling was silent for a while before saying, "If I were him, I wouldn't want this little bit of pity from others."

He arrived a full hour earlier than the agreed time, probably because he didn't want her to see him in such a miserable state.

Yes, how could a former genius fall to this state? How could he not feel humiliated?

Whether right or wrong, her choice now is to maintain the only remaining dignity.

Xiao Jin complained: [You humans are really complicated. ]

Xia Ling smiled and said nothing.

About a quarter of an hour later, Xia Ling walked out of the alley only after making sure that Gu Yuanzhou had walked to the stall.

I trotted over to him and took two breaths deliberately, "Senior Brother Gu, I'm sorry, I'm a little late."

Seeing her unstable breathing, Gu Yuanzhou frowned slightly, with a hint of concern in his tone: "...It's okay for me to wait another day, you don't have to be so anxious."

"Hehe, I will definitely not let you wait that long." Xia Ling laughed, "By the way, have you been setting up a stall here to sell ore for the past two years?"

Gu Yuanzhou lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a tired voice: "No, I just came here a month ago. I do this just to earn some spirit stones and exchange them for food to fill my stomach."

A cultivator can practice fasting when he reaches the foundation-building stage, but he is no longer a cultivator now, so he has to eat normally if he wants to stay alive.

Xia Ling didn't plan to ask about the past in detail, "Brother, what did you do with the remaining raw stones from yesterday?" He couldn't possibly carry so many back by himself, right?

Gu Yuanzhou bent down and pressed somewhere. The stone slab in front of him suddenly moved away, revealing a pile of raw stones underneath.

"This is the first time I've seen this kind of mechanism." Xia Ling sighed as he glanced at the pile of raw stones.

The light emitted by most of the raw stones is extremely weak, with only two or three rays of light being quite good.

Just as Xia Ling was about to look away, his attention was attracted by a piece of raw stone.

It was the same piece she bought here yesterday, the size of a palm, but even more lustrous.

"Brother Gu, did you find these raw stones yourself?"

"I bought it from someone else." Gu Yuanzhou: "If you need it, just take it."

"No, no, I don't need it for now." Xia Ling took out a storage bag, put away the raw stones one by one and handed them to him, reminding him: "Brother, I always feel that the quality of that palm-sized raw stone will definitely be above medium quality after it is cut. Don't sell it easily, it's better to cut it out and take a look."

Gu Yuanzhou didn't answer: "No need to give it to me, these are all given to you."

Just as Xia Ling was about to refuse, he added:

"If Junior Sister still considers me a senior brother, then don't refuse."

"Then I'll accept it." Having said this, what else could Xia Ling say? He could only accept it.

But there was one question she still had to ask.

"Brother, when do you plan to return to Yinmiao Sect?"

Although she had asked him yesterday, he hadn't given a precise answer, so she couldn't figure out what he was thinking now.

Gu Yuanzhou's hand, which was suspended in mid-air, paused for a moment, but his emotions were much more stable than yesterday.

But his voice was a little lower: "...I have no plans to go back for the time being. I heard that my life card has been broken...If there is a chance, please tell my father that I am still alive."

But meeting...is not necessary.

His father would be even more upset seeing him like this.

Having fallen to this point, he had no face to return to the sect.

"I will." Xia Ling did not persuade him. After putting the storage bag into the Xuanying bracelet, he took out a bottle of pills and gave it to him: "Brother, this is a Disguise Pill. Take it first. The effect of a pill is two days. Just take one pill every other day."

Afraid that he would think too much, Xia Ling explained clearly, "I haven't thought of a perfect plan to expose Wen Wan's evil deeds yet, so I have no choice but to resort to this last resort and ask you to conceal your identity for now. But don't worry, I will find a way to inform the Third Elder."

In fact, he was mainly afraid that he would be in danger if he was targeted by someone with bad intentions.

As for the Third Elder...

The day of the competition among the five major sects is not far away, and the elders and leaders of each sect will not be absent.

When the time comes, she will ask her master to let her participate in the sect competition, and then she will naturally have the opportunity to get close to the third elder.

"Yeah." Gu Yuanzhou responded, took the medicine bottle, poured out a pill and swallowed it.

After he took the disguise pill, his appearance became ordinary, but the black lines on his face could not be concealed and still existed.

"Brother, can I take you to Qingning City today?"

She still had some spirit stones, but time was running out, so she could only let him stay in the inn for the time being.

After returning from Guyun City, I will consider whether I should save some property to buy a separate residence.

In short, she will be able to handle all these complicated matters within a year.

Gu Yuanzhou didn't care about his current situation, "...I'll do whatever you say."

Xia Ling also knew that his mood would not be optimistic, so he took the initiative to act as the atmosphere group, "Then let's go now!"

Xia Ling drew out the spiritual sword behind him, enlarged it and stood on it.

"Brother, come up quickly."

She controlled the height of the sword very low, almost only two centimeters away from the ground, so Gu Yuanzhou didn't have to exert much effort.

After he stood firm, Xia Ling hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother, why don't you hold on to my clothes? I haven't carried many people before, so my sword may not be stable enough..."

"No need, I believe you." This is what Gu Yuanzhou said.

But in less than two minutes, he regretted it.

He grabbed her shoulders expressionlessly, and after trying to hold back, he still couldn't help but said, "...Junior sister, don't you seem a little unstable?"

As he spoke, the spirit sword rushed forward at high speed, and before anyone could react, it fell down and dodged to the side in a terrifying manner.

The entire route is messier than a paper clip, and the speed that changes from fast to slow makes people afraid to breathe loudly.

Fortunately, Xia Ling relied on his own faith to regain control of the balance of the spirit sword at the last moment, thus avoiding a crisis.

Facing his question, Xia Ling smiled shyly: "...Brother, do you believe me when I say I fainted from the sword?"

Gu Yuanzhou: ...

"Didn't you become a sword cultivator?" He still asked his doubts.

"Ahem, yes." Xia Ling coughed dryly, "But don't worry, Senior Brother. Even if I am afraid of swordsickness and heights, I will definitely be able to overcome it after a while. By then, my sword-controlling skills will be as stable as an old dog... ahem, as stable as Mount Tai!"

In order to focus on the little bit of image he had left, Xia Ling swallowed the word "dog" that he had just said.

Gu Yuanzhou looked at her slightly trembling hands and was amused by her.

His tense nerves relaxed a lot, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face that he didn't even notice, "I believe you."

"Brother Gu, you have good vision!" Xia Ling was instantly moved.

You have to know that after the Second Senior Brother taught her the sword control technique once, he refused to teach her again. Usually he either avoided her or pushed it to the Fifth Senior Brother.

She looked like she was some kind of Black and White Impermanence and didn't want to be dragged down to hell to suffer again. This made her sad for a long time!

(ps: In fact, the so-called sadness does not exist at all. I still pester him to share his experience, but I am rejected every time.oo)

Xiao Jin added at the right time: [If you are not good at it, practice more. ]

Whose sword-riding is like this?

∽↓↗n⌒u→↘↗

This is getting worse and worse.

It's also a little confusing.

It is obvious that the host can learn other aspects quickly and can apply them to ten other things.

How come only this most basic sword-wielding technique is as bad as a vegetable leaf full of holes bitten by insects?

Overcome it? Overcome it. This is obviously not because of sword fright or fear of heights, but because the technique is not good enough, right?

"..."

It had no intention of hiding its true feelings, so Xia Ling heard all the complaints clearly.

Under normal circumstances, she would have retorted, but at the moment she felt a little uneasy, so she finally endured it with a smile.
