Jian Xingzhi looked at Master Wuyou not far away with a rather provocative look, and Qin Wanwan's view was completely blocked by him.
The Master Wuyou on the opposite side smiled, and his pair of peach blossom eyes looked at Jian Xingzhi gently: "I guess this girl is this year's Gentleman Swordsman, right?"
This voice is so gorgeous and noble that it makes people's hearts itch.
Qin Wanwan didn't take a close look at the young man's appearance just now, she only vaguely saw a handsome outline. Hearing the voice, she couldn't help but want to look at the other person, so she immediately poked her head out from the left.
Jian Xingzhi immediately raised his left hand and used his sleeve to block her view.
Qin Wanwan leaned out from the right, and Jian Xingzhi immediately raised his right hand to block her view.
Qin Wanwan realized that Jian Xingzhi was doing this on purpose, so she stepped under his sleeve, held down his hand that was about to grab her, and appeared in front of Master Wuyou: "If the winner of the competition is Gentleman Sword, it will be me."
As she spoke, she finally saw the appearance of Master Wuyou and was stunned.
The best-looking man she had ever seen in her life was Jian Xingzhi, but the man in front of her was no less handsome than Jian Xingzhi.
It's just that Jian Xingzhi's appearance has a kind of handsome and dignified, heroic air like white plum blossoms and slender bamboos. This man, on the other hand, has a kind of warm and gentle scent of ink that is unique to scholars.
Generally speaking, it looks much more cultured than Jian Xingzhi.
And somehow, although their facial features were completely different, Qin Wanwan always felt that the person in front of her had an indescribable similarity to Jian Xingzhi.
She couldn't help but stare at Master Wuyou's face and look at him carefully.
Master Wuyou seemed to be unaware of everything. He just smiled and looked at her. The two looked at each other in silence. Jian Xingzhi saw her staring at Master Wuyou in a daze and laughed angrily: "You should accept the award, why are you in a daze?"
After this reminder, Qin Wanwan finally realized that it was indeed impolite to keep staring at someone. She immediately blushed and was a little embarrassed: "I... I..."
"Don't think too much," Master Wuyou suddenly spoke up to help Qin Wanwan out of the embarrassment, "The girl is so beautiful, I can't say anything when I first met her, it would be offensive."
Everyone could see that Qin Wanwan had seen him in a daze, but he just opened his mouth and took all the responsibility. Jian Xingzhi looked at this man in disbelief and subconsciously wanted to correct him, but at the moment of his words, 666 reminded him in time: "If you don't want to go back and get beaten to death, shut up!"
Everyone has helped Qin Wanwan to step down, and if he continues to sabotage her, Qin Wanwan will kill him when she returns.
This made Jian Xingzhi shut up. He held his breath and watched the host come forward to ease the atmosphere. He chattered: "It seems that not only do we love Fairy Qin, but Master Wuyou loves her too!"
“Can you give out the awards properly?”
Jian Xingzhi couldn't find a way to get angry, so he turned to look at the host. The host was scolded and held his breath for a long time, then turned around and said, "Okay, then we announce that the Gentleman Sword is won by contestant Qin Wanwan. Please ask Master Wuyou to present the prize!"
As he spoke, the celebratory music sounded, and two attendants came up with a gift list. Master Wuyou took the gift list and handed it to Qin Wanwan. After Qin Wanwan took it, Master Wuyou politely said, "Congratulations."
"Congratulations!"
The host led the applause and the whole audience celebrated.
At this moment, a ding sound came from Jian Xingzhi's mind, and a cheering sound effect came along with 666's heartbeat voice:
"Congratulations on completing Mission 10: Assist the heroine to become the Gentleman Sword of the Deserted City, obtain the Linglong Jade, points +2000, character -1000, total points: 5235
Jian Xingzhi was not overwhelmed by the points. He kept staring at Qin Wanwan and Master Wuyou.
"You can go to the Moon Tower tonight to claim the prizes," the host turned to Qin Wanwan and explained, "There are a lot of prizes, so you may need to bring more people."
"Then," Qin Wanwan looked at Master Wuyou, "Master, you will answer my three questions. Where should I ask them?"
"Dengyue Tower," Young Master Wuyou raised his hand and pointed to the tall building not far away, and said in a gentle voice, "I will have someone send clothes and jewelry over in a while. Miss, please get dressed first. I will wait for you there."
"good."
Qin Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. She raised her hand and saluted: "Thank you, sir. I will go downstairs to heal my wounds first."
"Wait." Master Wuyou suddenly spoke.
Qin Wanwan looked up curiously and saw Master Wuyou looking at Jian Xingzhi, smiling and extending his hand: "Master, can you return Bailing to me?"
Jian Xingzhi knew what he wanted, so he took out the tightly tied lark from his sleeve and threw it at Master Wuyou.
"Take it."
As he spoke, Jian Xingzhi reached out and grabbed Qin Wanwan, then pulled her off the stage.
The lark on the other side was freed from the silencing spell by Master Wuyou, and immediately started to curse: "Jian Xingzhi, you bastard! Fuck you! You..."
Master Wuyou heard the lark yelling and raised his hand to pinch its beak.
Bai Ling looked at Master Wuyou with red eyes. Master Wuyou raised his hand and wiped away the wounds on its body.
"There's a kingfisher staring at you from below," Master Wuyou glanced at Cuilv, who was staring coldly at Bailing from the audience, and reminded with a smile, "If you call again, that bird will come up and you'll be in trouble."
Bai Ling shut up and turned away feeling wronged.
He couldn't beat the kingfisher.
Qin Wanwan and Jian Xingzhi came down from the stage. She couldn't help but look back at Master Wuyou for a second longer.
Jian Xingzhi raised his arm and put it around her shoulders, pushing her face back from the noodle.
Qin Wanwan's face was squeezed crooked, she turned her head and looked up at him, vaguely: "What are you doing?!"
"Look again," Jian Xingzhi looked at Master Wuyou meaningfully, then turned back to threaten her, "If you look again, I'll knock your head off!"
Qin Wanwan froze. She couldn't tell for a moment whether he was going to knock off her head or Master Wuyou's head.
But no matter whose head it is, she hopes it can be in the right place.
She coughed lightly and explained, "I think he looks a bit like you."
Jian Xingzhi didn't believe her lies. He saw the man clearly just now. The man's eyes, nose, mouth and eyebrows were not similar to him at all. It would be better to say that he looked like the fortune teller at the night market before.
Thinking of that scholar, Jian Xingzhi couldn't help but look back at Master Wuyou.
Young Master Wuyou happened to look over, and the two looked at each other for a moment. Young Master Wuyou smiled and nodded at him. Jian Xingzhi looked away indifferently, pretending not to see it, and dragged Qin Wanwan away.
The two returned to Cui Lu and the others. Nan Feng saw Qin Wan Wan and ran over. He was still the size of an ant. He stood up but was not even as tall as Qin Wan Wan's knees. He hugged Qin Wan Wan's legs and cried bitterly: "Master! You are suffering, Master!"
"Hey," Jian Xingzhi kicked him lightly with his foot, "Don't cry."
Nanfeng froze, Qin Wanwan bent down and picked him up, patted the dust off his shell, and comforted him: "It's okay, I'm back safely."
"What exactly happened?" Cui Lu frowned. "Just now you ran away with the green bead. After a long time, this Master Wuyou suddenly appeared. He brought the bead back, and then you suddenly appeared again."
"Go back and talk about it."
Jian Xingzhi took Nanfeng out of Qin Wanwan's arms and held it, saying, "There are too many people and too many eyes."
The five people turned around and walked through the special red carpeted passage. When they came out of the arena, they saw the Ning family's carriage at the door. Ning Buyan lifted the curtain and smiled at the group of people: "I heard that you got the Gentleman Sword. I thought it might be troublesome to come back, so I came here to pick you up."
"Thank you, Mr. Ning."
Qin Wanwan and Ning Buyan did not thank them and led the group into the carriage.
After getting on the carriage, Ning Buyan asked Qin Wanwan to pour tea: "I heard something happened on the field, what happened?"
Now in the carriage, Qin Wanwan finally had time to tell everyone what happened in the secret realm.
"It turns out that Jun Wuyuan is Shen Zhiyu. Shen Zhiyu was possessed by a demon over 200 years ago and was later discovered by Jun Shu..."
"After Shen Zhixuan died, the demon seed was planted in Jun Shu. It seemed that both of them were obsessed with me, so they came to the secret realm to kill me. You don't know, that battle was very difficult. From the beginning, the earth shook and the world turned upside down." Qin Wanwan thought of the dangers of the secret realm, gulped her saliva, and was still frightened. "Then there was the Samadhi True Fire burning, the thunder striking, and the extremely cold ice. At this time, Jun Shu was nothing. This secret realm almost killed me! Fortunately, Master found a way to break the secret realm in time!" Qin Wanwan looked at Jian Xingzhi with gratitude.
Jian Xingzhi coughed lightly, turned his head away guiltily, and said with a stiff face: "It's my duty."
"He stopped the perverted behavior in this secret realm in time and came to save me. We did this and that..."
Qin Wanwan exaggerated the process of their fight with Jun Shu, and by the end, everyone was fascinated.
"Then," Cui Lu was curious, "is Jun Shu really dead?"
"Death."
Jian Xingzhi affirmed: "I'll confirm it once more."
"But Shen Zhi has been cultivating for thousands of years, can his demon seed... also be eliminated?"
The higher the level of cultivation, the stronger the evil energy generated. Therefore, even though Shen Zhi's soul was destroyed, the demon seed was still able to remain and parasitize Jun Shu.
"Wanwan's sword is different from ours. No matter what kind of sword our sword is, its essence is to stop killing by killing," Jian Xingzhi explained, "But Wanwan's sword does not focus on killing, but on life and kindness, which is exactly the natural enemy of demons. And Jun Shu's body itself cannot withstand the cultivation of Jun Wuyuan and Shen Zhiyu. He can only die instead of becoming a demon."
At this point, everyone felt that the topic was a bit heavy, and Cui Lu sighed: "Let's talk about something more heartfelt."
"for example?"
Ning Buyan turned to look at Cui Lu, and Cui Lu's eyes lit up: "I think Master Wuyou is so handsome!"
"Do you think so too?"
Speaking of this, Qin Wanwan immediately became excited and said happily: "He is really good-looking and has a good temperament. Did you see the fan he was holding? I..."
“I don’t think this topic is interesting at all.”
Jian Xingzhi interrupted the conversation between the two women and said expressionlessly: "Next topic."
"Aren't you worried?"
Cui Lu glanced at the four men around her and said, "Don't you think he's handsome?"
"do not think so."
The four men said in unison, with Xie Gutang taking the lead: "I think sword cultivators are better looking."
"That's right." Ning Buyan nodded, "I think so too."
"Well," Jian Xingzhi praised them, "You have good taste."
Cui Lu, Qin Wanwan: "..."
They looked at the three sword cultivators boasting and decided to remain silent.
When they returned to Ning Mansion, Qin Wanwan saw a young man carrying a set of clothes and jewelry in the room. He bowed to Qin Wanwan and said respectfully: "This is a gift from the young master to the young lady. I hope the young lady can show some favor tonight."
Qin Wanwan heard what was said and quickly bowed to the young man: "You are so polite, sir."
The young man smiled and returned the greeting, exchanged a few words of greeting, then turned and left.
Jian Xingzhi looked at the various things and sneered, "He treats a meeting like a wedding. Is this man mentally ill?"
"Wow," Jian Xingzhi just finished speaking, Cui Lu exclaimed, "This dress is so beautiful!"
Qin Wanwan heard this and looked over curiously. She saw that the clothes seemed to be made of the same material as the one worn by Master Wuyou today. The red clothes and gold thread looked extremely gorgeous. In addition to the clothes, there were also jeweled shoes.
Qin Wanwan was moved when she saw these things.
Since she came here, she hasn't seen such big gems and worn such fine fabrics for a long time!
If she had known there was such a prize for fighting, she should have fought more often!
She and Cuilu were chattering about these jeweled clothes. Jian Xingzhi leaned against the door with his arms crossed and watched. After a moment, he sneered and turned away.
Qin Wanwan heard him slam the door, and she turned around with the hairpin in her hand and looked at Cuilu: "Is he unhappy?"
"When has he ever been happy?"
Cui Lu glanced outside and then picked up a hairpin: "I think this hairpin is more suitable for this dress. I will use this one tonight."
Qin Wanwan held the hairpin, which was a little hot for some reason. She forced a smile and said, "It's good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Feng came running over happily: "Master, many people from the Ning family came to congratulate you, would you like to see them?"
"See you." Qin Wanwan smiled, "I'll see you soon."
As she said that, Qin Wanwan went out to greet the people from the Ning family who came to congratulate her. When night fell and it was almost time to go to the Moon Tower, Qin Wanwan still hadn't seen Jian Xingzhi. She looked around in Jian Xingzhi's room and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
"Where's Jian Xingzhi?"
She asked everyone, Cui Lu didn't know what was going on because of her painted nails, Xie Gutang shook his head, and only Nan Feng answered, "Jian said he was upset, so he went out."
"Then..." Qin Wanwan choked up, feeling aggrieved for some reason, "He won't accompany me to the Moon Tower?"
"Jian Jun said that if he doesn't come back, he will let Sister Cui Lu go with you."
Nan Feng answered in a serious tone. Qin Wanwan paused, then pretended to be calm and nodded: "Yes, I know."
Although she said she knew it, but when she thought about going to the Moon Tower alone, she didn't know whether that Mr. Wuyou was a human or a ghost, and Jian Xingzhi just let her go, she felt inexplicably unhappy.
But when she thinks about it, she feels that Jian Xingzhi doesn't owe her anything, it's just that she is too used to this person.
She adjusted her mindset, washed up simply, put on some light makeup in front of the mirror, looked back at the gorgeous clothes on the table, thought about it, and decided to wear the new clothes.
Just as she was about to get up, she heard a lazy voice coming from the window: "You don't want to wear new clothes?"
Qin Wanwan turned around instantly and saw Jian Xingzhi leaning against the window looking at her. She was quite happy: "You're back?"
"Yeah." Jian Xingzhi nodded and asked again, "It would be impolite not to wear the clothes someone gave me, right?"
"What's polite or not?" Qin Wanwan laughed, "I just went to ask something."
Jian Xingzhi curled his lips and suddenly threw a Qiankun bag over from his back. Qin Wanwan caught it and heard Jian Xingzhi say, "Change into something nice so that others won't look down on you. It's not that we can't afford it."
Qin Wanwan was stunned, Jian Xingzhi had already turned around and left.
She hesitated for a moment, opened her Qiankun bag and shook it down, and out of it fell a lot of clothes and jewelry. It felt as if this person had packed up the entire street and brought it back.
"What do you buy so much for?"
Qin Wanwan was surprised and asked loudly to the people standing outside.
Jian Xingzhi said impatiently: "How would I know which one you like? Just buy them all."
"Where did the spirit stone come from?"
Qin Wanwan frowned, and Jian Xingzhi was unhappy: "I took it from the tomb, why do you care so much?!"
Qin Wanwan was speechless. Looking at the piles of clothes, she felt inexplicably happy, but she felt that this happiness was a little wrong.
She picked out an outfit awkwardly, dressed up, and finally went out.
Jian Xingzhi, Xie Gutang, and Cui Lu Nan Feng were waiting outside. When they heard her finally come out, they turned around and complained, "You were incubating in there..."
Without saying anything, he just stood there in a daze, looking at the girl who came out.
Qin Wanwan was wearing a long dress with wide sleeves and blue edges on a white background, a corseted bodice, and a half-tied bun with a jade hairpin. Although she was not gorgeous, she looked extra gentle. The color was similar to his blue robe, which made his heart beat faster for some reason.
Qin Wanwan was a little nervous when she saw that he didn't say anything: "Not... not suitable? How about I change another one."
"No," Jian Xingzhi pretended to be calm and looked away, "It's pretty good, let's go."
Qin Wanwan couldn't help but glance at Cuilu and Xie Gutang. Cuilu happily patted her arm with her fan and said, "You are so beautiful. Let's go."
Qin Wanwan pursed her lips, looking quite happy. She walked to Jian Xingzhi and wanted to talk to him.
She hadn't worn such nice clothes for a long time, and she didn't know why she felt a little awkward. She coughed lightly to ease the atmosphere: "I haven't worn this kind of clothes for a long time, and I'm still a little uncomfortable. I'm used to living outdoors with you, and I find that simpler clothes are more comfortable."
Jian Xingzhi didn't say anything. After a moment, he said awkwardly: "My palace in the fairy world is built in a blessed land. Although it is not as big as your Jishan, the unit price is much more expensive than Jishan. All in all, the price should be about the same as Jishan."
Qin Wanwan was a little confused. Why did he suddenly want to compare whose house was more valuable
She was a little angry for a moment: "That's because my parents like quietness, not because they can't afford it. If you compare wealth, no one in the fairy world can compare to my parents!"
"Well," Jian Xingzhi felt embarrassed and immediately retorted, "Well, I'm old. If you let me live a thousand years, I will definitely be richer than your parents!"
"So what!" Qin Wanwan was immediately angry when she heard him belittling her parents. The joy she felt from the clothes just now was useless. She could only say, "You don't have it now anyway!"
"You... you wait!"
Jian Xingzhi was speechless and could only say: "Just you, I'll wait!"
The two of them had nothing to say to each other, so they snorted coldly, decided not to pay any more attention to each other, and turned away to sulk.
The cold war continued all the way to the Moon Landing Building. Bai Ling and the previous host were waiting at the door early. When they saw the group coming, the host approached them warmly and asked, "Who wants to go with me to move the prizes?"
"Me!" Nan Feng raised his hand eagerly. The host glanced at the person next to him and asked, "Is there no one else?"
"Do we need so many?" Xie Gutang was curious. The host nodded, "There are a lot of prizes. One person definitely can't carry them all."
"Then let's go together."
Cui Lu spoke and glanced at Xie Gutang.
"I will protect Wanwan." Jian Xingzhi arranged the tasks in a timely manner. After the five people were assigned the tasks, the host took the three people away.
Bai Ling looked at Jian Xingzhi coldly, then turned to look at Qin Wanwan and saluted: "Please come in, fairy."
Qin Wanwan and Jian Xingzhi tried to open the door together. The door could only allow one person to pass through, so they were both stuck. Qin Wanwan immediately glared at Jian Xingzhi. Seeing Qin Wanwan's fierce look, Jian Xingzhi couldn't help but take a step back and let Qin Wanwan go first.
The two walked upstairs, one in front and one behind, led by Bailing. When they reached the top floor, Bailing said respectfully, "Sir, the fairy is here."
The voice of Master Wuyou came from inside: "Please come in."
As he spoke, the door creaked open, and Qin Wanwan led Jian Xingzhi out of the room. As soon as they entered the room, the door slammed shut. Qin Wanwan turned around unconsciously and heard Master Wuyou's voice from the inner room: "Come and sit down."
Qin Wanwan hesitated for a moment, and Jian Xingzhi stepped forward. As he passed her, he laughed at her: "You are so brave, yet you still want to rush forward."
Qin Wanwan was not convinced, but she felt that he was right.
She should let him go.
He followed Jian Xingzhi into the house and saw that there was nothing in the house except a table. It had no roof, and the moonlight poured directly into it. Master Wuyou stood in front of the phantom of the starry sky with his back to them, raising his hand to move the stars.
"Please take a seat."
He turned his back to them and said, Qin Wanwan and Jian Xingzhi sat down together. Master Wuyou turned around and sat calmly opposite them, saying with a smile: "Do you two have any questions?"
Qin Wanwan had an illusion for a moment, feeling that she and Jian Xingzhi were like a married couple who came to see a doctor for infertility treatment.
Jian Xingzhi looked at Master Wuyou's skilled fortune-telling and his smiling peach blossom eyes, and couldn't help but frowned: "Have we... met before somewhere?"
Master Wuyou paused, and Jian Xingzhi suddenly remembered something. He exclaimed in surprise: "It's you!"
Qin Wanwan was at a loss, and Jian Xingzhi said affirmatively: "I remember you, the fortune teller at the night market!"
Master Wuyou drank a sip of tea with a smile and looked up calmly.
"Long time no see, sir, have you found love?"
