Sometimes, the person in question would be the slowest to react. Take Ji Lingxi for example; she really did not realize that she was different from the others.
Yu Xiang 'er dashed over and grabbed Ji Lingxi's arm. She rolled up her sleeves and did the same with her own sleeves. Suddenly, she cried out in agony, "Look! Look! Look! Look! Look! Look! This girl must have a good idea! Look at how tender her arm is! It's so smooth and supple … "
The sisters gathered around her upon hearing her, their eyes wide and small as they observed, exclaiming, "Indeed, there's a tinge of red in the white … this … this is too tender!"
Yu Xiang'er was not the only one who could resist the temptation of flawless beauty, snow-white skin, and jade-like bones!
"I've bathed with Lingxi before …" Yu Xiang'er said plaintively, "Her breasts weren't as big as mine, and her skin wasn't as fair as mine … Now, her breasts are bigger than mine, and her skin is fairer than mine … She's taller than me to begin with … She's going to crush me in all aspects … Oh God, I don't want to live anymore …"
The other sisters looked at Ji Lingxi curiously as well, gathering around her. "Lingxi, tell us honestly, what kind of trick did you use?"
"Hand it over and share it with us sisters! Otherwise, we won't let you go! "
"Yes, yes, be honest, or we'll torture you together!"
Ji Lingxi was bewildered as she asked, "Have I … really changed? I really didn't notice … Haven't I always … "
"How can you say that you haven't changed when it's so obvious? Are you trying to fool a fool?" The sisters were indignant.
Ji Lingxi, on the other hand, was confused, not knowing what to do.
She really did not remember any special encounter …
It was just that she had been in a good mood every time she held this saber during this period of time. There was really nothing else …
"Then tell me, when did I start to change?" Ji Lingxi asked in a daze.
Yu Xiang'er remembered it vividly as she replied immediately, "It hadn't even been two to three days since you left Tiantang City and you'd already started to shed your skin. You were still complaining about how there was so much dander on your body then … Hmph! Hmph! "
With that, everyone suddenly remembered. "That's right, Lingxi, you did complain about it for the past few days. Skin flakes kept falling off your body, and we even comforted you …"
Ji Lingxi recalled it as well, but she was even more bewildered. "But what is going on? I didn't have any fortuitous encounters. Everyone basically stayed together every day … "
Yu Xiang 'er frowned as well, thinking hard. Suddenly, a thought struck her, "Could it be … could it be that Lingxi has already … done that in Tiantang City?"
All the sisters asked in unison, "Which what?"
Yu Xiang 'er blushed as she said, "Was … was … nourished by that … Young Master Yun?"
This sudden statement was earth-shattering. In an instant, all the girls blushed. However, they were all sisters here, so there was less restraint in their words. Xia Yuhan slapped her thigh and said, "That must be the case. It's said that women who are nourished are the most outstanding. Lingxi, be honest. Have you given yourself to him?"
Ji Lingxi was both embarrassed and embarrassed, almost crying out loud. Her face was flushed. "No, no, I didn't … sigh!"
As she spoke, she sighed and said, "It's not like all of you don't know that he's just … a piece of wood …"
Her sigh was laced with sorrow.
"Oh … looks like this girl is rather disappointed that she didn't give herself up …" Yu Xiang 'er pursed her lips and put her hands on her hips. "Be honest! What actually happened … "
Yue Rulan did not speak.
However, her eyes were staring at Ji Lingxi's face thoughtfully and then at the Phoenix's Cry Saber in Ji Lingxi's hand. Ever since they left Tiantang City, the saber had not left her hand. She said thoughtfully, "Lingxi, let me have a look at your saber."
Hearing Yue Rulan's words, all the girls were intelligent and knowledgeable, so they immediately thought of something odd. "Could it be that there's something strange about this saber?"
Ji Lingxi hesitated. It was not that she was reluctant, but she was not used to having her hand leave her saber.
She had been hugging it every day for the past few days and it had become a habit of never leaving her side.
Just as Yue Rulan took the saber, the Phoenix's Cry Saber trembled violently. She was so shocked that she almost lost her grip on the saber.
Yue Rulan cried out in surprise and lifted her head to look at Ji Lingxi. "Lingxi, that Young Master Yun of yours is really generous …"
Ji Lingxi asked in bewilderment, "How so?"
Yu Xiang 'er came over and snatched the saber away. This time, the saber's reaction was even more intense, jumping continuously in Yu Xiang' er's hand. Yu Xiang 'er was so shocked that she quickly returned the saber to Ji Lingxi. When she saw the Phoenix's Cry Saber become motionless once it was returned to Ji Lingxi's hand, she could not help but think of something. She then cried out in shock and envy, "It's a treasured saber with intelligence!"
As soon as he shouted, the surroundings immediately fell silent.
All the girls were elites from noble families; how could they not know the meaning behind her words?
A treasured saber with intelligence would choose its own master. Once it recognized its master, it would never change!
"I've seen this Phoenix's Cry Saber before." Xia Yuhan looked puzzled. "I've seen it when it was in Ximen Wandai's hands. It was just that the saber looked ordinary then, it didn't have such elegance …"
"The feeling of this saber is different from before … The color and luster of the saber are different …" Xia Yuhan said as she looked at it. "What's going on?"
Yue Rulan said, "This saber must have had a new encounter. It was only a lady's saber when it was in Ximen Wandai's hands, but when it was in Young Master Yun's hands, Young Master Yun must have made some changes to this saber, allowing it to possess intelligence. Lingxi's fortuitous encounter to obtain this saber is truly a fortuitous encounter. "
"That's right. The initial change in Lingxi's body was after she left Tiantang City. It was a very short period of time, but there was a huge change and everything became better. I think what you complained about falling back then wasn't the dandruff but the impurities in your body. It was after this saber was connected to your spiritual source and became one with the saber, helping you to cleanse your body and force out the impurities."
"That's why your body has undergone such a transformation, as if you've been reborn." Yue Rulan sucked in a deep breath, her gaze filled with envy as she looked at Ji Lingxi. "That's why I said … that Young Master Yun, although he looks like a block of wood and is unromantic, in fact … he's really nice to you. He actually gave such a rare treasure to you without a word. I think the reason why he didn't say anything is probably because he's afraid of pressuring you. "
Ji Lingxi's face was glowing as she asked joyfully, "Is this true?"
"Silly girl." Yue Rulan was indeed envious, but what she was truly envious of was not the Phoenix's Cry, but the affection that this saber represented when he gave it away.
"It's a pity that this saber is completely useless to us because this saber only belongs to you. It won't give its energy to us, but to you, Lingxi, you'll be enjoying the help of this saber at all times …"
Yue Rulan said, "You've only been connected to this saber for a short time now, so you haven't experienced more of its benefits. Right, your current cultivation base has broken through to the seventh peak, hasn't it? It's only been a short two months and you've broken through two levels consecutively. Would it have been possible if it had been before? This is the benefit of this saber! "
Ji Lingxi blushed as she shook her head lightly.
The girls stared at Ji Lingxi with undisguised envy. Along with their envy, there was also a hint of jealousy. 'Why isn't there someone who treats me like this?'
More than that, however, they were happy for Ji Lingxi.
It was because she had such a treasured saber, and because someone could give it to her without feeling the slightest bit of heartache.
A treasured saber with a spiritual nature like this was a family heirloom even among the eight noble families; it was one of a kind.
Even elites like them would find it hard to own one!
"If the Ximen Family knew that this saber had actually transformed into what it is now … I wonder how much they'd regret it …" Yue Rulan looked at her sisters sternly. "Only the few of us will know about this. We mustn't leak this out. Otherwise, Lingxi will be in trouble. "
The sisters replied in unison, "Don't worry, this is our secret. How can we tell anyone else?"
That night, Ji Lingxi was sleeping in her room when Yu Xiang 'er crawled into her room and insisted on sharing the same bed. She hugged Ji Lingxi to sleep for the entire night despite the hot weather.
The next day, she realized that she had indeed benefited from Yu Xiang 'er's favor. There were indeed flakes on her arms that looked like they were about to fall off …
Therefore, Ji Lingxi was completely dominated by Yu Xiang 'er for the next few nights. A few days later, Yu Xiang' er's ecstatic cries attracted everyone's attention. Ever since then, Ji Lingxi had become a hot commodity.
Therefore, there would be a sister hugging her to sleep every night. Each of them was thick-skinned and could not be chased away, claiming that they wanted to benefit from Young Master Yun's glory as well …
"I want to sleep so badly …" Ji Lingxi was sleep-walking for the rest of the night. She could not sleep well for many consecutive nights, yawning incessantly at the hands of her unscrupulous sisters.
Nevertheless, the sisters were glowing with radiance.
Finally, on this day … the sudden news made the girls' joy vanish in an instant.
"According to investigations, Young Master Lingfeng has been found. He's the son of Moon Shadow City's Castellan. His name is Niu Lingfeng. He was born in a certain year and a certain month. His age, appearance … etc …"
When the detailed news arrived, it was as if a bolt of lightning had struck Yue Rulan's head. Her face paled and her delicate body swayed.
The fantasy that had been in her heart for a long time was suddenly shattered.
It was not him!
