There was no time for Jun Changxiao to reel in the net.
Therefore, it was still unknown how far Su Xiaomo's undercover journey was and how far he could go.
However, with this guy's slick personality, deliberately releasing his spiritual root and cultivation, and with the help of Sun Yingquan, Xia Shuiyun, and the two elders, it would be easy for him to climb up.
"The plan is going smoothly."
"However, I still have to keep a low profile to avoid causing trouble in the sect …"
The Taixuan Shengzong's waters were very deep. The outer sect was just the tip of the iceberg. There were inner sect and core disciples above it. He naturally had to tread on thin ice and couldn't relax at all.
To be exact.
Su Xiaomo walked the path of a protagonist growing in the sect, but he couldn't be like a real protagonist who could do anything.
In the future, he would deliberately interact with Xia Shuiyun more because Elder Xia's prestige in the elders' group was higher than Elder Sun's.
Of course.
After being taught by Elder Wei, Su Xiaomo always maintained an ambiguous relationship with that cold woman.
"Let's go and do the mission."
One day, Xia Shuiyun appeared again.
"This … I …"
"You have to go."
"Okay."
For the next few days, the two often appeared together in the mission pavilion, accepted missions, and left together.
After He Zonghying was defeated, it was as if he disappeared.
In a world where martial arts were the most important, if you didn't have the strength to face competitors, you could only be a single dog for the rest of your life.
Sorry, I'm not targeting some single readers, but please don't be sad or discouraged. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely continue to be single!
"Junior Brother Su and Junior Sister Xia are getting closer and closer!"
"Although I feel that Su Jintang isn't good enough for Xia Shuiyun, he has a supreme-grade spiritual root and has a better chance than us."
"Tsk, tsk, Junior Brother Su is really good at hiding. No wonder he defeated Senior Brother He."
As Su Xiaomo and Xia Shuiyun interacted more and more frequently, the outer sect of the Taixuan Shengzong discussed them more and more. Some even guessed that they might have already decided to be a couple.
Taixuan Shengzong did not object to disciples falling in love. He was more open-minded about this.
Su Xiaomo had naturally heard of the discussions in the outside world. He helplessly said to himself, "My relationship with her isn't as exaggerated as you say."
Xia Shuiyun's personality was cold and taciturn. Although the two of them interacted more and more frequently, the whole process was about accepting missions, completing missions, and handing in missions. Even if they occasionally talked, it was about martial arts.
Of course, Su Xiaomo hoped to establish a relationship with this girl that surpassed that of fellow disciples. After all, if he could form a good relationship with Elder Xia, it would be beneficial for his future development in the sect.
However, every time he thought about his real identity as a disciple of the Eternal Sect, if he made her fall in love with him, and after the Sect Leader pulled the net, he would say to her, "Sorry, I'm actually a spy." That would be too damn shameful!
Su Xiaomo said to himself, "You can't do that when it comes to relationships."
The Sect of All Times and the Taixuan Shengzong did not have any grudges, and they were not here to cause trouble. Therefore, they had to restrain themselves and leave without any burden after completing the mission.
"What are you thinking about?"
On the way to complete the mission, Xia Shuiyun looked at him.
"No … nothing."
"Recently, the matter between you and me has been spreading like wildfire in the sect."
"Yes."
Xia Shuiyun stopped in her tracks and turned her back to Su Xiaomo. "I only decided to help you because I felt that you have a lot of potential. Don't let your imagination run wild because of the rumors outside."
Su Xiaomo was speechless as she thought to herself, "What nonsense am I thinking!"
"Of course."
Xia Shuiyun said, "It's not that you're not worthy of me, but that I'm not interested in relationships."
After saying that, she walked straight away.
Su Xiaomo's mouth twitched slightly. "Does this woman think that I'll pursue her?"
"Senior Sister."
He hurriedly chased after her and said very seriously, "Actually, I'm not interested in relationships either."
"That's for the best," Xia Shuiyun said.
…
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
In the wilderness, a huge ninth-rank Feral Beast raised its thick forelimbs and attacked wildly!
"Icy Sword Aura!"
"Ding! Ding! Ding! "
Xia Shuiyun came over with her sword. She condensed her Sword Aura and hit the stone-like skin of the beast. Instantly, there was a crisp sound.
"Roar — — —"
The big beast roared and swung its thick tail fiercely.
"Not good!"
Xia Shuiyun's expression changed slightly.
"Senior Sister, be careful!"
At this moment, Su Xiaomo rushed over from the side and pushed the woman who couldn't dodge away. Then, the tail hit him directly in the chest. He flew out and sank into the stone wall with a bang.
"Wah!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood and then rushed over with the Nine Winding Shadow Steps. He grabbed Xia Shuiyun, who had just stabilized herself, and left this place as quickly as possible.
…
Night fell.
A bonfire rose in the cave.
Xia Shuiyun sat on the side and leaned against the pheasant in a panic. She didn't seem to be very good at it.
"Wah!"
Su Xiaomo, who was in the middle of healing, spat out a mouthful of black blood. His brows gradually relaxed.
"Are you okay?" Xia Shuiyun asked.
Su Xiaomo replied, "Yes, I'm okay."
Xia Shuiyun didn't say anything and continued to roast the pheasant. The atmosphere fell into an awkward state again.
Su Xiaomo had long been accustomed to this kind of lack of verbal communication, so he got up and walked over. He said, "It's all burnt. Let me do it."
Xia Shuiyun stepped aside.
Su Xiaomo took out a cleaned pheasant and skillfully stuck it on a wooden stick and began to roast it.
Xia Shuiyun didn't say anything, but her eyes were fixed on it, as if she was memorizing the entire process so that she could do it herself next time.
"Senior Sister."
After a while, Su Xiaomo said, "Junior Brother feels that sometimes you are too rash. For example, last time at the Yin Mountain Ridge and this time, you acted rashly without confirming the target's strength."
"I'm happy to do so," Xia Shuiyun said lightly.
This woman still didn't realize her mistake. How lucky must she be to be able to survive until now?
A cold woman was definitely a chatterbox. Su Xiaomo simply stopped talking.
"Here."
A quarter of an hour later, he handed over the roasted pheasant and said, "It's ready to eat."
Xia Shuiyun took it without hesitation.
After eating, she pointed outside and said, "Old rules."
"Okay, okay."
Su Xiaomo stood up.
The so-called old rules meant that if they were sleeping in the wild, she would sleep in the cave and he would sleep outside the cave.
After all, men and women were different.
In fact, they used to sleep in the cave at the same time. But when Su Xiaomo turned around while sleeping, Xia Shuiyun suddenly became alert. A cold current erupted and almost froze him into an ice cube.
From then on, Su Xiaomo used the excuse of "I'll go outside to keep watch" to maintain an absolute safe distance from this woman.
"Thud!"
Just as he got up, the small exquisite bottle tucked in his belt fell down.
Xia Shuiyun glanced at it and said lightly, "Didn't I finish this bottle of Tranquil Heart and Icy Skin Pills long ago? Why do you still have it?"
Su Xiaomo picked it up and wiped off the dust on it with his sleeve. He said, "Senior Sister is the first girl to give me something. Naturally, I have to keep it as a memento."
At this time, if elder Wei was present, he would definitely give him a thumbs up and praise, "Young man, you're worth teaching!"
"Idiot."
Xia Shuiyi said faintly. However, the layer of ice around her heart once again melted a little under her careless touch.
"I'm going out."
"Come back and guard the door."
"This … Okay."
In the middle of the night, Su Xiaomo habitually turned over and suddenly felt a burst of cold air approaching and enveloping his whole body in an instant. He was so cold that his body trembled.
He woke up with a whoosh and ran outside with his short legs. "I shouldn't have slept in there!"
