Lin Jianxue recovered from her trance, and found that Gu Xingyuan's spiritual power was swimming in his spiritual veins.

"Xingyuan." Lin saw Xuexue's eyelashes trembling, and wanted to break free from the opponent's arms with some guilt. After being noticed by the other party, she pressed her into her arms even harder.

"Master, don't move around." Gu Xingyuan's voice was very low, with a hint of toughness.

Lin Jianxue's whole body seemed to be overdrawn and weak, and now she couldn't break free, so she had to obediently let the other party investigate.After a few breaths, Gu Xingyuan carefully withdrew his spiritual power from his veins, but his arms were still tightly clasped around his waist.

Being hugged by his apprentice in such a posture, Lin Jianxue was a little uncomfortable, just about to say something, suddenly the voice of Rabbit Yaoxiu sounded beside him: "You you you, how can you use spiritual power!?"

Lin Jianxue turned her head and saw the disheveled Rabbit Yaoxiu getting up from the ground, crawling onto the stage, staring at him with red eyes, pointing at him with anger.

"Although, although your spiritual power seems to be very strong, you are not allowed to use spiritual power in this competition. This is a violation of the rules! It cannot be counted!" Rabbit Yaoxiu shouted.

Lin Jianxue didn't expect it to turn out like this, she was a little embarrassed, pursed her lips, lowered her eyes halfway and said to the rabbit demon: "Sorry, I did violate the rules, then this competition——"

"It's okay," Gu Xingyuan said suddenly, interrupting Lin Jianxue's words, "If you feel dissatisfied, just ask someone to compete again."

After finishing speaking, he took the sword from Lin Jianxue's hand, and the sharp sword light drew an arc in the air, pointing directly at the man in red under the stage.

"What does this young master think, do you want to fight again?" Gu Xingyuan glanced at him, his tone was light, and his expression could not distinguish between happiness and anger.

The atmosphere was stalemate for a few seconds, the man in red under the stage slowly got up, shook the dust off his clothes, his eyes swept over the master and apprentice, and fell on Gu Xingyuan's stern face, his eyes curved and said with a smile :

"Hehehe, why bother. Although the young man in white has used his spiritual power, everyone present, except you, is so oppressed by this spiritual power that he can't stand up... I think there is no more competition It's necessary."

After the man in red finished speaking, he signaled to Rabbit Yaoxiu to admit defeat. Rabbit Yaoxiu had no choice but to stand beside Lin Jianxue and announced, "In this case, he is the winner of this competition!"

No one in the audience objected, and Rabbit Yaoxiu pointed to the pile of broken things on the ground: "Okay, since you have won the winner, then I will not hold the responsibility for the destruction of things."

Lin Jianxue nodded slightly towards the rabbit demon Xiu, and the people watching around dispersed one after another.

The master and apprentice walked off the stage, Lin Jianxue unnaturally pulled her wrist, turned her head to Gu Xingyuan and whispered: "I'm fine, let me go."

Gu Xingyuan leaned very close, and when he breathed, his warm breath brushed past Lin Jianxue's ears, evoking a numb itching.

He slightly loosened Lin Jianxue's hand, but the expression on his face did not relax. He frowned and asked, "Looking at the spiritual power released by Master just now, I thought the spiritual power had recovered, but after detecting the spiritual veins, it wasn't Like this. Master, do you know what's going on here?"

"I..." Lin Jianxue's eyes flashed, she turned her head away and said, "I don't know either. I didn't feel any fluctuations in spiritual power at the time, it was just a very ordinary sword strike, who knows..."

He pursed his lips unnaturally, his soft lips turned white for a moment due to the force, then he paused and said: "Maybe, the spiritual power didn't dissipate completely before, it was just the remnants of those spiritual powers."

Gu Xingyuan looked at him for a few seconds, his eyes retracted from his tense, white and delicate jaw, and his fingers gently rubbed the skin of the other's wrist, with a hint of comfort.He lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Well, that might be the remaining spiritual power."

Seeing that Lin Jianxue had recovered, Gu Xingyuan let him go.Lin Jianxue straightened up from the opponent's arms, and when she was about to leave, a soft voice suddenly came from a few steps away from her.

"You two young masters, please stay."

The two turned their heads and saw that the man in red had finished his clothes and stood there smiling at them, as if he had been watching for a long time.

Gu Xingyuan stared at him with no expression on his face.

Feeling the real gaze, the man in red hesitated for a moment, as if he didn't want to give up, he walked towards Lin Jianxue under pressure, and said with a smile:

"Just now on the stage, the young master's swordsmanship is really powerful. It is rare for Qin to be agitated by the opponent. Please don't mind if there are many offensive words. I wonder if the young master can tell you the name?"

Lin Jianxue saw that the other party was polite at this time, not as frivolous as she was on stage just now, and she felt a little fond of her, she nodded and said, "It's nothing, I'm..."

"The competition is over, Mr. Qin has apologized, and this matter is over." Gu Xingyuan said coldly.

Lin Jianxue glanced at him from the corner of his eye, Gu Xingyuan's face was very gloomy, he seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't even pay attention to Lin Jianxue's eyes.

Lin Jianxue frowned, and was about to speak when she suddenly felt the other's hand touch his, their fingers intertwined, and the overlapping hands were deliberately exposed to the air by the other party.

Lin Jianxue was startled, he vaguely felt that this kind of action seemed too intimate, as if he shouldn't do it casually, but he couldn't tell the reason why it felt weird.

Mr. Qin was stunned, his eyes stayed on the overlapping hands of the two people for a while, and he looked at Gu Xingyuan with a little hesitation, as if he was worried about something, there was a bit of regret in his eyes, and he said reluctantly: "In this case, let's forget it... What a pity."

He glanced at Gu Xingyuan with a half-smile, stepped forward and smiled at Lin Jianxue, the red marks at the end of his eyes were a little strange:

"I met you young master today. Qin is really lucky in three lives. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to know the name of young master. When we parted, Qin had something he wanted to give young master."

After finishing speaking, he took out an exquisite small box from his bosom, with delicate and vivid patterns engraved on the surface, several kinds of unrecognizable flowers meandering and interlacing, and there was also a faint fragrance emanating from the box.

"This is the product that I have devoted myself to research for many years. It is a pity to give it to the young master today."

Lin Jianxue didn't understand why, so she took the things, and the other party smiled at him inexplicably, before he could react, she bowed and walked away.The speed was so fast, it seemed that if he stayed for a few more seconds, he would be poked into a sieve by some kind of gaze.

"What is this..." Lin Jianxue murmured in a low voice, he was holding the box in his hand, and was about to put it in front of his eyes for a closer look, when Gu Xingyuan suddenly stretched out his hand from the side, as if he was about to snatch the box away .

Lin Jianxue had sharp eyes and quick hands, put the box in his sleeve, and looked at the other party: "What are you doing? This thing is not harmful, and it has no special meaning. Do you want to take it away?"

Besides, it was because Mr. Fu Ling gave him a sachet before, but it was snatched away by Gu Xingyuan in a blink of an eye.Lin Jianxue was slightly dissatisfied with this kind of behavior, as if she was being controlled by the other party all the time.

It was clearly stated that he was the master, and Gu Xingyuan was just his apprentice.

That being the case, this kind of behavior is really a bit presumptuous.

Gu Xingyuan stared at him for a few seconds, as if he wanted to say something, his eyes moved, but finally he didn't say anything.He sighed softly, withdrew his hand and said: "If the master likes it, then keep it. It's just..."

Lin Jianxue waited for a while, but after not seeing him for a long time, she couldn't help asking, "Just what?"

Gu Xingyuan paused, and from the corner of his eye, he passed the other party's snow-white and deep neckline, and said in a low voice: "...it's nothing."

Lin Jianxue glanced at him and ignored him.

The two wandered among the crowd for a while, and suddenly a dark cloud began to gather in the sky.The sky became a little darker, and the slightly cold wind blew from a long distance, and a few strands got into the neckline, Lin Jianxue shrank her neck subconsciously.

"Is it cold?" Gu Xingyuan whispered, and then his slightly cool fingers covered his neckline, tightening his neckline meticulously.

The sky began to drizzle.

The ground became wet, and the pedestrians on the street began to disperse with their heads in their arms. The originally bustling street gradually became quiet in the rain.

Lin Jianxue was standing among the panicked crowd sheltering from the rain, and heard the person beside him say wait a moment, and when he turned his head to look, Gu Xingyuan was turning around from a small stall beside him, walking towards him with a bamboo umbrella in his hand.

With a soft click, the wide bamboo umbrella opened above his head, with a few pink peach blossoms painted on the umbrella, enveloping the two of them in a small world.

The pattering rain fell on the feet, and the sound of the surrounding rain came to the ears, but the umbrella above the head seemed to have some kind of barrier, separating the two of them from the surroundings, and even the air seemed to become quiet.

"Master, are you leaving?"

Lin Jianxue raised her eyes, and a pair of pale golden eyes looked at him quietly in front of her. Her eyes were so focused and deep, as if she had been looking at him for a long time, and it seemed that there was only one person in front of her in the world at this time.

Time seemed to stop for a moment at this moment, Lin Jianxue's eyelashes trembled, and her heart beat a little faster.

He came back to his senses, and hurriedly looked away, his chest was occupied by an inexplicable strange emotion, which caught him off guard, and he couldn't resist at all.

He felt that the other party seemed to be too close, and he could even feel the warmth of the other party's breathing.There is also a faint familiar smell from the other party in the square inch.

"Master?" Gu Xingyuan asked softly.

Lin Jianxue's chest jumped, and she felt the other party's cool fingers gently brushing the hair around his ears, and smoothing it behind his ears.

"What's the matter?" The other party lowered his head slightly, looking in with deep eyes, as if if he lowered his head a little, something would happen.

Lin Jianxue curled up in her sleeves and trembled at her fingertips, retreated half a point like an electric shock, turned her head and said, "It's nothing."

He paused for a moment before saying, "...let's go back."

The other party was silent for a while, and responded: "Okay."

The two were walking in the rain, and Lin Jianxue was distracted frequently along the way, as if she was stepping on clouds, her mind was in chaos, she seemed to be thinking a lot, but at the same time she seemed to be thinking about nothing.

When he came back to his senses, he had already returned to the Demon Sect Hall.

Gu Xingyuan changed the air-conditioned outer robe for him, and when he put away the clothes, something suddenly fell out of the outer robe.

Lin Jianxue's mind drifted off somewhere, but was pulled back by the sound, and looked down, there was a box lying quietly on the ground, which was exactly what Mr. Qin gave him just now.

Lin Jianxue picked up the box, held it in his hand, looked at it, and opened the buckle curiously. Inside was a box full of snow-white ointment. The rich and sweet aroma came over his face, but it was not greasy.

"What is this... exactly?" Lin Jianxue looked left and right, but it really didn't match up with the various ointments in memory.He saw Gu Xingyuan staring at this from the corner of his eye, so he couldn't help asking.

Gu Xingyuan didn't speak when he heard the words, he just stretched out his hand and closed the box with a click, and looked up at him, the tails of his long and narrow eyes pulled up a subtle arc, his eyes were deep, full of incomprehensible emotions.

Lin Jianxue suddenly had a certain intuition, as if he shouldn't ask this question.

But... what's wrong with this question, why can't I ask it?

Before he could figure it out, Gu Xingyuan lowered his eyes, and said slowly: "That Mr. Qin before, practiced Fengyue Dao that is prevalent among fox demon cultivators."

Fengyue Road...

Lin Jianxue faintly felt that there was an answer ready to come out.

Gu Xingyuan's hand covered his, and the temperature in his palm was inexplicably hot.

Lin Jianxue's fingertips trembled from the heat, and subconsciously wanted to retract her hand, but was held tightly by the opponent's backhand, unable to move.

"Master," Gu Xingyuan approached him a little bit, lowered his head and said softly, "Do you really want to know what this is?"
